The Phoenix Suns defeated the New York Knicks 112–107 on January 9 at Footprint Center, with Devin Booker leading the way with 31 points and Darius Brooks adding 27 in the victory. Phoenix's balanced offensive attack featured 16 three-pointers on 44.7 percent shooting, while the Knicks matched that three-point total but shot 45.1 percent from the field overall. New York dominated the glass with 50 rebounds to Phoenix's 37 and kept turnovers manageable at 17, yet the Suns' defensive pressure proved decisive down the stretch. The game finished well below the 229.5 Vegas total, with Phoenix's fourth-quarter offensive collapse—just 18 points—offset by a similarly stagnant Knicks finish of 21 points. Jalen Brunson paced New York with 27 points, but the Knicks' 17 turnovers and inability to capitalize on a 14-rebound advantage proved costly. Phoenix's offensive rating of 117.7 edged out New York's 116.0 in a tight contest that hinged on execution in crunch time. The loss leaves the Knicks searching for consistency on the road as the Suns solidify their Western Conference standing.
