Brooklyn enters the matchup with Phoenix after losing five straight games. Tuesday's game will be the second meeting this season between the two teams.

It was a frustrating loss for Phoenix, beaten 111-102 by Miami in a game where the Suns never really found their rhythm. Jaime Jaquez (20 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists) punished a too-permissive defense, while Brooks (26 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists) was one of the few offensive engines for Phoenix on an otherwise rough night.

Moving past losses to the Warriors, Trail Blazers that could have made this a road to run, the Heat followed up their blowout victory over the Jazz with a victory over the Phoenix Suns.

On Sunday, the Miami Heat responded with a strong 111–102 victory over the Phoenix Suns, which played without Devin Booker and Jalen Green.

The Phoenix Suns lost the game and key players against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday, Jan. 23. Devin Booker and Jalen Green both exited early.

Jalen Green has played just four games this season in his first year with Phoenix Suns.

After getting a clutch win against the Grizzlies, the Hawks have a tough challenge against one of the best teams in the Western Conference.
