Dillon Brooks received his 18th technical foul of the season in the Phoenix Suns’ 120-110 win against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday, but a league review rescinded it Monday morning.

That will keep Brooks available for Phoenix’s game against his old team, the Houston Rockets, on Tuesday.

He was previously suspended for the Suns’ game against the San Antonio Spurs on Feb. 19 after receiving his 16th foul against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Feb. 11.

After the 16th technical and first suspension, Brooks is at risk of being suspended for every two technicals from now until the end of the regular season.

At 7:24 mark of the fourth quarter Sunday, Brooks got the technical foul as part of a double tech with Bulls guard Mac McClung. McClung’s technical was also rescinded.

Brooks received his 17th technical foul against the Orlando Magic last Tuesday, his first game back from a broken hand.

Brooks finished the game Sunday with 15 points (on 6 of 15 shooting), with four rebounds, three assists and two steals.

Devin Booker led the Suns with 30 points in the win.

I'd like to see the T. Eddie Johnson said he didn't really do anything. They give him a T for sticking his tongue out

Suns need to move on from Brooks this off-season.
