Pacers Edge Suns, 97-94

Last updated on Wednesday, January 20, 2016

(PHOENIX, AZ) - The Pacers snapped their three-game losing streak as they edged the Suns 97-94.

Monta Ellis led the charge with 20 points while Paul George added 19.

Indiana overcame a career-best night from Phoenix guard Devin Booker, who scored 32 points.

The Blue & Gold led by as much as 20 but had to fend off a Suns rally that cut the lead down to five.

"We still have a lot of work to do, but we needed a win," Myles Turner said after the game.

The Pacers held the Suns to just 34.6 percent shooting in the game and forced 22 turnovers.

The toughest game on the four-game road trip is up next as the Pacers visit Stephen Curry and the defending NBA champion Warriors on Friday.
