Former NBA star JJ Redick spoke on the recent state of the Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix Suns, and Golden State Warriors. Each team was put in a position to compete for an NBA Championship prior to the 2023-24 season, but it’s been an underwhelming start. All three teams are on the outside of the playoffs […]

Injuries have very much limited the Phoenix Suns so far this season. After trading for Bradley Beal in the offseason, pairing him with Devin Booker and Kevin Durant, the Suns were expected to be the juggernaut that nobody could outscore in the Western Conference.

The Phoenix Suns are looking to extend a four-game winning streak Wednesday at Footprint Center against the Los Angeles Clippers.

There was plenty of optimism surrounding the Phoenix Suns’ chances of competing for a championship in the 2023-24 season in the immediate aftermath of their blockbuster trade for Bradley Beal.

Frank Vogel’s wife is Jenifer Vogel. Frank is one of the best coaches in today’s NBA.

Fast forward to today, the two-time […]

The Phoenix Suns looked like one of the best offensive teams in the NBA in the last week. Entering 2024, Phoenix is looking to fix its defense. The Suns, who are led by coach Frank Vogel, have improved on that end and will not be as talented as they are on offense, according to their […]

Bradley Beal looked like the guy the Phoenix Suns traded for to try and win their first-ever championship in their 112-107 win over the Orlando Magic on New Year’s Eve. The Suns are 2-0 with Beal, who returned from a right ankle sprain Friday against the Charlotte Hornets, in the lineup. “It’s part of what […]

In just his second game back from a two-week absence due to an ankle injury, Phoenix Suns star Bradley Beal showed signs of life. In 35 minutes, the 6-foot-4 guard scored 25 points on 10-of-13 shooting to complement Kevin Durant’s 31 points and Devin Booker’s 21-point, five-assist evening as the Suns beat the Magic, 112-107.

Phoenix had Devin Booker, Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal […]

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant in the last two games has an assist-to-turnover ratio of 27-to-4.

Via […]

The Phoenix Suns have not had the start to the 2023-24 campaign that they were likely hoping for, and a big reason for that is because their new big three of Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal have only played in one game together.

So much for all the talk about Kevin Durant having already mentally checked out amid a frustrating start to the 2023-24 NBA season by the Phoenix Suns.

PHOENIX — Kevin Durant is averaging the fifth-most points in the NBA and to some, should be in the talk for best player in the world. Durant in the Suns’ 128-114 loss to the Dallas Mavericks Monday on Christmas at Footprint Center — Phoenix’s ninth defeat in 12 tries — was not treated like the […]

The Phoenix Suns began an organizational makeover when they traded Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson for Kevin Durant at last year’s deadline.

The Brooklyn Nets made a bet against the Phoenix Suns’ future when they traded Kevin Durant at last year’s deadline. General manager Sean Marks acquired Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, unprotected first-round picks in 2025, 2027 and 2029, and an unprotected first-round pick swap in 2028. While that bet is still in its infancy, Brooklyn appears […]

The Phoenix Suns were expected to be one of the best teams in the NBA entering the 2023-24 season.

The Phoenix Suns are stacked with great talent, but it will take more than that for them to win the NBA title.

The Dallas Mavericks and Phoenix Suns closed out the NBA’s five-game Christmas day slate of action, and it was Luka Doncic who stole the show with an outrageous 50-point, 15-assist outing to power the Mavs to a 128-114 victory. Along the way, though, Grant Williams and Devin Booker reignited their beef with a shoving match […]
