Beal, acquired by the Suns via trade this off-season, wasted no time proving his worth. The dynamic guard erupted for 29 points on 10-of-17 shooting, adding 6 rebounds and 5 assists in his Phoenix debut.

"It feels amazing to be in this uniform," said Beal after the game. "The guys have welcomed me with open arms, and we're all on the same page. This team has a special vibe."

Booker, the Suns' All-Star shooting guard, led the way with a game-high 34 points on 13-of-20 shooting. He also dished out 7 assists and grabbed 5 rebounds.

"Devin was phenomenal tonight," said Suns coach Monty Williams. "He's our engine and our leader, and when he's playing at this level, we're virtually unstoppable."

The Jazz, led by Donovan Mitchell, struggled to find their rhythm throughout the game. Mitchell finished with 24 points but shot just 8-of-22 from the field.

"We didn't make shots tonight," said Jazz coach Will Hardy. "They're a great defensive team, and we weren't able to counter their pressure. We need to learn from this and bounce back."

The Suns will look to continue their winning ways when they face the Sacramento Kings on Saturday night, while the Jazz will try to regroup when they host the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday.
