The Oklahoma City Thunder survived several massive runs in their 118-110 win over the Phoenix Suns on Sunday.

The contest saw the Thunder build a 24-point lead and the Suns possessed a 13-point lead. After trailing by six points, OKC went on a 23-8 run in the fourth quarter to come out with the win.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the way with a near 35-point triple-double. Jalen Williams had 22 points and three steals. All five Thunder starters scored double-digit points.

Bradley Beal led the way for the Suns with 31 points on 10-of-14 shooting and six assists. Kevin Durant tallied 20 points on 6-of-15 shooting. Jusuf Nurkic had 14 points and a career-high 31 rebounds — which is also a Suns record.

Let’s look at some of the best photos from the Thunder’s eight-point win over the Suns.
