The Phoenix Suns took care of business on Tuesday night and defeated the Brooklyn Nets by a score of 106-102 after a chaotic and intense on-court fight that ensued late in the fourth quarter.

PHOENIX (AP) — Mark Williams scored 27 points, Dillon Brooks had 26 and the short-handed Suns beat the Brooklyn Nets 106-102 on Tuesday night in a game that featured a scuffle late in the fourth quarter.

The Nets are on Game 2 of a 5-game road trip. They have lost 5 straight games and 10 of their last 11. They are coming off a 126-89 road loss to the LA Clippers Sunday. Brooklyn failed to cover as a 10.

Brooklyn battled back late, but fell short in Phoenix on Tuesday.

It ended with a loose ball, a shove, bodies flying in every direction and a lengthy delay that sucked the air out of a tight game. Egor Dëmin and Dillon Brooks tangled as Ziaire Williams fought for a loose ball late and the scrum spilled outward. By the time order was restored, the momentum Brooklyn had just found was gone.
