    Rondae Hollis-Jefferson had a little extra energy on the court Saturday.

    The second-year pro learned just before the game that his mother had been flown in to Arizona to watch her son play. She watched from her second-row seat as Hollis-Jefferson scored a career-high 20 points with 13 rebounds in the Brooklyn Nets' 122-104 victory over the Phoenix Suns.

    "Just to have her here, that was more special to me than the 20 points," Hollis-Jefferson said. "I winked at her about three times."

    Brooklyn got its first road win of the season, scoring 17 straight points late in the fourth quarter to extinguish the Suns' comeback attempt.

    The Nets held a 102-100 lead with 4:16 to play when their decisive run began. It included Brook Lopez's 3-pointer with 1:47 to go to make it 113-100, and some tight defense on the Suns' top scorers.
