The Phoenix Suns were one loss away from being in serious trouble, and in the first half, that was a legitimate reality.

Thanks to Devin Booker's 38 points, the Suns took down the Los Angeles Clippers, 123-109, to tie their first-round series at one.

Los Angeles led by as many as 13 points in the first half, and all eyes were on Phoenix, who made the acquisition of the decade when they traded for Kevin Durant right at the trade deadline.

But when the Suns ended the first half on a 23-10 run, life was back in the desert.

Phoenix stormed out of the locker room with a 12-2 run, and while Los Angeles was later able to cut their deficit to four points, it was the Suns who ultimately pulled away.
