MILWAUKEE (AP) — Markieff Morris scored 26 points and grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the Phoenix Suns to a 102-96 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night.

Isaiah Thomas added 19 and Goran Dragic 16 for the Suns, which have scored a 100 or more points for the nine straight games.

Brandon Knight scored 26 and Giannis Antetokounmpo added 16 for the Bucks, which lost their fourth straight at home.

The Suns have won nine of the last 11 and opened the four-game road trip with their third consecutive victory. They also upped their record to 8-1 over Eastern Conference opponents.

After the game Larry Sanders, who did not suit up, disputed reports that he wants to quit basketball; he added that he is trying to work things out off the court.
