Devin Booker had 43 points and tied a career-high with 12 rebounds, Chris Paul scored 15 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter and the Phoenix Suns extended their winning streak to eight with a 105-97 victory over the Utah Jazz.

Booker paced the Suns through three quarters but didn’t get a shot in the fourth until he missed a runner with 3:45 to play.

But Paul took over the offensive burden with his mid-range jumpers and drives to the basket.

Jordan Clarkson scored 16 of his team-high 26 points in the fourth quarter for the Jazz who dropped their ninth game in the last 11.
