Suns fight back to stun Thunder

The Phoenix Suns dominated the second half of their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder to clinch a 128-122 win over the Western Conference leaders.

The Suns found themselves 16 points down during the third quarter, but a career-best 41 points from Gerald Green helped the home side come from behind.

The game had looked comfortable for the visitors in the first half as Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant, who combined for 70, ran the score up.

However, Green added 25 of his total in the third quarter to leave Phoenix with a narrow lead going into the fourth, where Goran Dragic was able to put the win beyond doubt with a late flurry of shots.

The result leaves the Thunder just one win ahead of the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference, having lost four of their last seven, while the Suns sit seventh in the conference.
