On Wednesday evening, the Phoenix Suns hosted the New York Knicks in Arizona.

The Suns lost by a score of 138-122.

Devin Booker finished the loss with 33 points, three rebounds and five assists while shooting 12/23 from the field and 2/7 from the three-point range in 38 minutes of playing time.

After losing five games in a row, the Suns will now get five days off until their next game.

I asked Devin Booker about the importance of the Suns' upcoming 5-day break before their next game: "Yeah, I think it's an important time just to get the guys healthy and just regroup. Come in with the same energy we had to start the season and get back rolling." pic.twitter.com/0nNo9rR5qr

While the Suns are in the middle of a tough stretch, they are also playing without Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal.

Booker has been up and down, and the team is missing their other two stars in a big way.

Via Evan Sidery: "The Suns’ record with Kevin Durant: 8-1

The Suns’ record without Durant: 1-6

Durant is expected to make his return from a left calf strain next week."
