Cameron Payne back with a bang

The Suns' scoring boost came from Cameron Payne in the second quarter. He sunk a big three-pointer with a few minutes left. Payne had just returned to Game 4 after playing only four minutes of Game 3 because of an ankle injury. However, the recovery wasn't slowing him down at all.
