The Brooklyn Nets ( 16 - 42 ) defeated the host Phoenix Suns ( 14 - 44 ) 116 - 106 , Thursday night at Talking Stick Resort Arena . The Suns and the Nets represent two of the worst records in the NBA this season . With this result Phoenix suffered its 13th straight loss , tying a franchise - high . This loss also marked a franchise - high eighth - straight home loss for the Suns . Although they are far out of the playoff race , the Nets have been playing slightly better as of late , winning four of their last eight games , after a horrible stretch during which they lost 15 of 17 . The Nets waived Joe Johnson early on Thursday , which gave some of their younger players a chance to showcase their skills in this contest and they did just that . Bojan Bogdanovic recorded a career - high 24 points ( 8 - 16 FG , 3 - 9 3Pt , 5 - 5 FT ) , in 38 minutes , while Markel Brown chipped in 16 points ( 4 - 7 FG , 2 - 2 3Pt , 6 - 8 FT ) , along with three rebounds , one assist and one steal , in 24 minutes off the bench . Thaddeus Young also stepped it up as he finished with 18 points ( 8 - 11 FG , 2 - 2 FT ) , eight rebounds , seven steals , three assists and three blocked shots , in 36 minutes . Despite giving up 18 turnovers , the Nets played well offensively , shooting 49 percent from the field , 44 percent from long range and hitting 34 - of - 42 free throws . Phoenix did not do a good job of controlling the ball and establishing rhythm as they gave up 21 turnovers and recorded only 16 assists on 42 made field goals . Mirza Teletovic stood out as a bright spot for the Suns , as he tallied 30 points ( 12 - 23 FG , 5 - 13 3Pt , 1 - 1 FT ) , along with 11 rebounds , in 30 minutes off the bench . Tyson Chandler recorded 12 points ( 5 - 9 FG , 2 - 4 FT ) , 11 rebounds , two steals , one assist and one block , in 33 minutes , after missing two games with a sore shoulder . Alex Len chipped in 13 points ( 5 - 10 FG , 3 - 7 FT ) and six rebounds , in 17 minutes . Len 's status for this game was in question after he twisted his ankle in practice on Wednesday . The Suns battled back after entering the fourth down - 19 , to bring it as close as 10 , a difference their 13 missed free throws would have more than settled . The Suns will host the Grizzlies on Saturday , and will look to avoid setting a single - season , franchise - high 14th straight loss . The Nets will move on to Utah to play the Jazz on Saturday , in what will be their third game of a nine - game road trip .
