For the second straight year, the Phoenix Suns' season has ended at home in an elimination game in the Western Conference semifinals.
Phoenix is 9-for-13 from the field. Denver is 10-for-17.
Jock Landale just picked up his second foul for Phoenix, which made coach Monty Williams bring in Bismack Biyombo with Phoenix missing Deandre Ayton in this game.Cameron Payne has seven early points for the Suns, including Phoenix's first five points of the game, as the Suns and Nuggets go back and forth in the first quarter.
Kevin Durant has yet to score for the Suns, but he was just fouled on his first shot attempt of the game. Devin Booker has two points for Phoenix.There have already been five lead changes in this game.The Suns have a couple of changes to their starting lineup for Game 6. Monty Williams is going with Jock Landale in place of the injured Deandre Ayton, which isn't much of a surprise, but he is starting Landry Shamet with Kevin Durant at the forward spots, which will mark Shamet's first start of the postseason.It appears that the Suns are going to have to try to outscore the Nuggets, and Shamet's ability to shoot 3-pointers could help Phoenix, especially is he can replicate his Game 4 performance in Phoenix.
The Nuggets are going with their same starting 5: Michael Porter Jr. and Aaron Gordon at forward, Nikola Jokic at center and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Jamal Murray at guard.
