In the NBA regular season, the Suns lost to the Clippers 102-129. After the game, Suns player Dillon was interviewed.

When talking about his "villain" defense, Dillon said: "This is my style of play. I love playing like this, and I have been like this since I was 10 years old."

When talking about defending Harden, Dillon said: "Harden taught me how to stay disciplined on defense. Even if he didn't talk to me directly, I learned a lot from him. Although in the game I was fooled several times, but he is indeed a unique player who can always force defenders to improve their defensive discipline."

In this campaign, Dillon played 26 minutes and 34 seconds, making 7 of 17 shots (5 of 10 three-pointers), 2 of 2 free throws, 21 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals, with 4 turnovers and 5 fouls, with a plus-minus value of -15; Harden scored 30 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 block, and 4 turnovers.
