Suns Beat Clippers For 9th Consecutive Time

PHOENIX (AP) -- Jason Richardson scored 29 points, reserve Hakim Warrick had a season-high 25 and the Phoenix Suns kept the Los Angeles Clippers winless on the road with a 116-108 victory on
Friday night.

The victory was the Suns' ninth in a row over the Clippers and extended their home winning streak against Los Angeles to seven.

No visiting Pacific Division team other than the Los Angeles Lakers has left US Airways Center with a win since April 17, 2007 -- a total of 27 games.

In addition to the Clippers, the Suns have won 10 straight at home against both Sacramento and Golden State.

Steve Nash added 16 points and 10 assists for the Suns, Channing Frye scored 16 with four 3-pointers and Grant Hill had 12.
