The Phoenix Suns defeated the Dallas Mavericks 120–111 on February 10 at Footprint Center, staying competitive despite a late Dallas surge. Devin Brooks led Phoenix with 23 points, while Devin Booker added 19 in a balanced offensive attack that shot 48% from the field and connected on 16 three-pointers. The Suns controlled the game through three quarters, outscoring Dallas 96–75 before the Mavericks mounted a fourth-quarter comeback, scoring 36 points to Dallas's 24 in that frame. Dallas's Nic Marshall (31 points) and Donovan Flagg (27 points) drove a late push, but Phoenix's 49 rebounds and 32 assists proved decisive; the Mavericks managed just 5 three-pointers on 16 attempts despite shooting 48.1% overall. Phoenix's defensive rating of 106.4 limited Dallas's efficiency, though the Mavericks' 16 turnovers contributed to their deficit more than stellar Suns defense. The result fell below the Vegas total of 229.5, reflecting a grinding defensive affair. Phoenix's balanced scoring depth and rebounding advantage should maintain their conference positioning, while Dallas's fourth-quarter resilience suggests they remain capable of competing.
