Tensions ran a little high after the Phoenix Suns beat the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 2 following an out-of-bounds alley-oop pass from Jae Crowder to DeAndre Ayton to secure the 104-103 win

DeMarcus Cousins (LAC) has been assessed a postgame technical foul upon league review for actions at the conclusion of the game on 6/22/21

Cousins has seen an increase in playing time in the Western Conference finals to match up with the Suns' size, but in Game 1 he had five fouls in just 13 minutes of action

He played less than five minutes in Game 2, and was put in the game to defend Crowder inbounding the ball

With the win in Game 2, the Suns now hold a 2-0 series lead over the Clippers with the series shifting to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Thursday.
