14 Apr
Summary
- Phoenix Suns host Portland Trail Blazers Tuesday for playoff spot.
- Winner claims No. 7 seed and faces San Antonio Spurs.
- Devin Booker rested and in scoring form for Suns.

A pivotal play-in game is scheduled for Tuesday night, with the Phoenix Suns hosting the Portland Trail Blazers to determine the Western Conference's No. 7 seed. The victor will advance to face the second-seeded San Antonio Spurs in the first round of the NBA playoffs. This matchup represents a significant opportunity for both franchises to exceed expectations this season.
The Suns have shown resilience, especially without key players like Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, adapting their identity to become a strong defensive unit under first-year head coach Jordan Ott. They secured two out of three regular-season wins against Portland. The Trail Blazers, led by All-Star Deni Avdija, have demonstrated their potential by securing crucial wins late in the season, clinching the No. 8 seed.
