Marquese Chriss led the Suns to a 104-103 comeback win over the Hawks on Tuesday, scoring 17 points (6-of-12 FGs, 2-of-4 FTs) with 11 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three 3-pointers in 34 minutes.

Talk about clutch. Chriss had two huge blocks in the fourth quarter including one in the final seconds which looked like an easy two points for Taurean Prince. Coach Jay Triano said his "physical conditioning is a lot better now" and it's really showed over the last couple weeks. "We’re seeing him run the floor and get alley oops, we’re seeing him run down and get chase down blocks," Triano said. "Those are the energy type things we expected from him that we weren’t getting earlier." Chriss' fantasy arrow is pointing straight up and he'll be one of the hottest pickups with 12.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.8 blocks, 0.8 steals and 1.8 triples over his last five games.
