The Phoenix Suns are viewed as one of the most dangerous teams in the NBA this season, primarily due to the presence of the Big 3 of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal.
Although the trio is perfectly capable of winning games on their own, getting a little extra help certainly helps them in being dominant.
A player who is seemingly in red-hot form right now is none other than sharpshooter Grayson Allen.
Allen has had back-to-back amazing games where he was automatic from the three-point line.
Speaking of his most recent performance against the Toronto Raptors, Allen helped the Suns in getting an early lead thanks to his remarkable three-point shooting prowess.
So much so that it prompted praise from Kevin Durant during the postgame press conference, as revealed via ClutchPoints on Twitter.
“We’re going to need that moving forward,” Durant said.
“We’re going to need that moving forward.”

Durant is undoubtedly the leader of the current Suns team.
But even he is going to have a few off nights and could struggle to play well.
Keeping that in mind, Durant didn’t hide his happiness about Allen stepping up for the Suns in the past two games.
In fact, Durant believes that the Suns will certainly need that support in the future.
As for Allen’s performance, he finished the game with 26 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists in 39 minutes of playing time.
Evidently, the highlight about Allen’s game was none other than his 8-of-14 shooting performance from downtown.
Allen showcased immense confidence in his three-point shooting ability as he didn’t even attempt any two-point shots throughout the game.
