Anthony Davis added 27 points and 15 rebounds, while Austin Reaves scored 20, including a decisive three-pointer.

The Suns, who had bounced back after an initial loss to the Lakers in the tournament, were led by Kevin Durant who scored 31 points but missed a potential game-tying 3-pointer at the buzzer. Despite the Suns' rebounding advantage, the Lakers' shooting advantage proved decisive.
