STRONG SECOND HALF SURGES SUNS PAST MAVERICKS, TAKE 2-0 LEAD

OVERVIEW

Following the Suns’ Game 1 win over the Mavericks, Deandre Ayton spoke of his team’s need to “break the dang gas pedal,” not letting up on their opponent.

Coming out of halftime down two points, the Suns did just that. Stomping their foot on the gas and never letting up in the second half of their 129-109 win over the Mavericks in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals at Footprint Center on Wednesday night.

Using a 31-23 third-quarter edge, the Suns entered the fourth quarter leading by six and never looked back.
