In a game against the Lakers on December 15, 2025, the Suns lost a close contest 116-114, with LeBron James securing the victory for the Lakers with free throws and a game-winning block. More recently, on January 6, 2026, the Suns suffered a narrow 100-97 defeat against the Houston Rockets, with Kevin Durant hitting a late three-pointer to seal the win for Houston and secure the season series.
