While, The Argentine contributed his characteristic defensive intensity, but little scoring: 6 points, the product of two triples, and 2 rebounds. He was barely 18 minutes on the court.
The visit played again to the rhythm of their star point guard, Chris Paul (27 points and 8 assists) and had Devin Booker on a great night. Phoenix stomped in the first quarter, and his went to halftime up (59-55) in part because of the Nuggets’ lift in the second half.
In the third quarter the domination of the Suns returned, who showed off their defense and scored. Two triples almost in a row by Campazzo in a hot moment of the second period narrowed differences for a few moments, in which it was the best passage for the Argentine.
However, the third period was devastating for the homeowner. If the game was not settled at that time, it was due to the contribution of the MVP, who kept his team in the game by dint of points and offensive rebounds.
It was a triumph for Phoenix Sun at the Ball Arena, to make the series 3-0 and be one game away from getting into the final of the NBA Western Conference. The series continues Sunday in Colorado.
