Bradley Beal made his return from injury recording 16 points of his own in 27 minutes. The 30-year-old has missed the majority of the season only playing in just his fourth game of the year.  

The Suns look to keep momentum going with Kevin Durant’s return around the corner. Golden State now awaits news from the commissioner on a possible Green suspension.
