Dillon Brooks Scores 33 Points in Game 3 Loss, Criticized by SGA

Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks led his team with a game-high 33 points during Saturday's 121-109 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 3. Brooks was efficient, shooting 11-of-21 overall, 4-of-9 from three, and converting all seven free-throw attempts, adding seven rebounds and one assist in 37 minutes. Despite his strong offensive effort, the Suns now face a 3-0 series deficit. Brooks had previously criticized Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for foul-baiting, a narrative SGA seemingly responded to with his 42-point performance.
