Bradley Beal scored 25 points, Kevin Durant added 23 and the Phoenix Suns beat the Atlanta Hawks 123-115 on Thursday night. Beal — still adjusting to his new role coming off the bench — shot 11 of 16 from the field in one of his most efficient games this season.

Bradley Beal had the game-high 25 points and the team-high three steals to lead the Phoenix Suns (17-19) to a 123-115 home win over the Atlanta Hawks (19-19) on Thursday. This was the third consecutive game Beal has come off the bench after being removed from the Suns' starting lineup earlier this week.

Ready or not, the Atlanta Hawks are in town to take on the Phoenix Suns. No, the Hawks aren’t on a winning streak, but that doesn’t seem to matter when it comes to the Suns. The Suns will take on any team,
