Suns at Pelicans Game 4 Postgame Media Availability: Williams, Johnson, Paul and Ayton

Jae Crowder - Puts up 11-5-5-2 in loss Crowder recorded 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Sunday's 118-103 loss to the Pelicans.
Impact While the absence of Devin Booker (hamstring) may equate to a few more minutes for Crowder, his role as a spot-up shooter hasn't really changed. He did knock down his first three-pointer of the series Sunday, but through four games he's a dreadful 1-of-17 from beyond the arc. Seemingly every year, Crowder goes through dramatic swings in three-point efficiency in the playoffs, so if the Suns can stay alive, he could be due for an overcorrection at some point.

Deandre Ayton - Scores efficient 23, Suns fall Ayton had 23 points (11-14 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one block in 33 minutes during Sunday's 118-103 loss to the Pelicans.
Impact After going for 28 points and 17 boards in Game 3, Ayton had another efficient night on the offensive end, going 11-of-14 from the field to help counteract a strong effort from Jonas Valanciunas (26 points, 15 boards). For the series, Ayton is up to 20.5 points, 10.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.5 blocks and 0.8 steals per game. He's drawn only five total free throw attempts in 135 minutes, however.

Chris Paul - Scores four points in Game 4 loss Paul posted four points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds, 11 assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Sunday's 118-103 loss to New Orleans.
Impact While Paul did provide his usual, elite assists production, it was essentially a no-show for the future Hall of Famer in the scoring department. He took only eight shots in 35 minutes and did not attempt a free throw for the first time in the series. With Devin Booker (hamstring) expected to be sidelined through at least the end of the series, it goes without saying that Phoenix will need significantly more from Paul if it hopes to re-take control of the series in Game 5 on Tuesday night.
