Chris Paul - Inconsequential in loss Paul chipped in 11 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 loss to the Nuggets in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Impact Paul scored at least 11 points for the fifth straight game, and his 5:1 AST/TO ratio is strong, if underwhelming. Underwhelming is an issue, however, as Phoenix needs peripheral support with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker supplying over half of the Suns' points Saturday. After 6-for-12 shooting from beyond the arc in Games 4 and 5 against the Clippers, Paul's ability to connect from beyond the arc remains a swing factor.

Devin Booker - No signs of slowing down Booker finished Saturday's 125-107 loss to Denver in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals with 27 points (10-19 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, two block...
Impact Booker once again led the Suns in playing time, and he's averaging 42.7 minutes per game across Phoenix's six playoff contests thus far. His crazy usage is yielding 35.5 points, 6.7 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 2.3 steals and 1.2 blocks per game on 59.1 percent shooting. The Suns need more of it, and Booker appears up to the task.
APRIL 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Durant - Scores team-high 29 Durant ended with 29 points (12-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Saturday's 125-107 loss to the Nuggets in Game 1 o...
Impact Durant capitalized on Denver's smaller wings, canning his signature midrange jumpers while finishing a perfect 4 for 4 at the rim. He also accounted for 36.8 percent of the Suns' total rebounds. It's possible that trend continues with DeAndre Ayton logging a team-worst minus-21 during his time on the floor.
