Bol Bol Shines in Unexpected Breakout Game in Suns’ Loss to Rockets

In the Suns’ recent loss to the Rockets on Friday night, Bol Bol presented a strong case for earning more minutes off the bench.

With Jusuf Nurkic sidelined due to a sprained ankle, Bol seized the opportunity to shine, playing a season-high 27 minutes, scoring a season-high 25 points, and securing a season-high 14 rebounds.

During Bol’s time on the court, the Suns enjoyed a +3 advantage, a noteworthy feat considering their four-point loss. Remarkably, he contributed 15 points in the fourth quarter alone, which accounted for nearly half of the Suns’ points in the final 12 minutes.

Heading into tonight, Bol wasn’t expected to see much playtime, which makes his career-best game all the more extraordinary.

Despite the Suns’ loss, fans were thrilled with Bol’s standout performance.
