The Phoenix Suns defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 115–102 on November 6 at Footprint Center, with Jalen Green leading the charge with 29 points while Devin Booker added 24 in a dominant third-quarter performance. Phoenix's third quarter proved decisive, outscoring the Clippers 40–23 to seize control after a tight first half, and the Suns' perimeter shooting proved the differentiator—they made 19 three-pointers compared to Los Angeles's 10. The hosts shot 44.6 percent from the field while holding the Clippers to 44.3 percent, and their 27 assists on 115 points reflected balanced ball movement. Ivica Zubac paced the Clippers with 23 points and Caleb Christie contributed 17, but Los Angeles managed only 24 assists and struggled to generate consistent offense outside their leading scorers. Phoenix's 13 steals showcased their perimeter pressure, and despite matching the Clippers' 15 turnovers, the Suns' 114.6 offensive rating versus Los Angeles's 106.0 underscored the difference. The result keeps Phoenix competitive in the Western Conference standings while the Clippers face questions about closing out road contests.
