Paul George scored his 15,000th career point, while Norman Powell led all scorers with 24 points as the Clippers eked out a victory over the Suns playing without Devin Booker and Chris Paul.
Norman Powell scored 24 points after being out two months, Paul George added 19 points in three quarters to go over 15,000 in his career, and the Los Angeles Clippers edged the NBA-leading Phoenix Suns 113-109 on Wednesday night.
The Clippers beat up the Suns for three quarters, leading by 39 points in the third. But Phoenix's reserves put together a 48-point fourth quarter and then ran out of time. Ish Wainwright scored a career-high 20 points to lead Phoenix. Aaron Holiday added 16 points and Bismack Biyombo had 14 points and 12 rebounds. The only starter in double figures was Payne with 13 points. The Suns' bench outscored the Clippers' reserves, 66-58.
George has played in five of six games since returning from a torn UCL. Powell is back after missing 21 games with a broken foot. He played in just three games with the team before getting hurt shortly after he was acquired in a trade from Portland.
