Utah Jazz at Phoenix Suns
· National Basketball AssociationBooker scores 47 points, Allen forces OT with 3-pointer at buzzer in Suns' 135-127 win over Jazz

With 0.9 seconds left in regulation, Allen caught an inbounds pass and hit the 3-pointer from the right wing to tie it at 122. Allen opened the extra period with another 3 and the Suns scored the first eight points of overtime to pull away and snap a three-game losing streak.
John Collins led Utah with 21 points.. Lauri Markkanen added 20.
The Suns led 111-98 with 5:31 left in regulation, and the Jazz responded with a 13-0 run to tie it. Utah led 120-116 with 4.7 seconds left, but Allen hit two 3-pointers in the final five seconds for an improbable rally.
Allen finished with 21 points, hitting seven 3-pointers.
The Suns were playing without the injured Kevin Durant (ankle) and Bradley Beal (toe). Two other players — forward Cody Martin and guard Vasa Micic — were unavailable after being acquired from Charlotte on Thursday.
Bol Bol hit a 3-pointer with 8.8 seconds left in the second quarter to push Phoenix into a 55-all tie at halftime. Booker scored 22 points before the break on 8-of-12 shooting.
Suns: It might be the best win of the season for the Suns, considering the circumstances. It's hard to say whether this will spark any sort of late-season resurgence, but it couldn't hurt.
