The Jae Crowder-Phoenix Suns trade saga appears to be nearing its conclusion. Three-and-D forwards are at a premium, making Crowder a coveted asset in the trade market. Of all the suitors, it seems as if the Milwaukee Bucks remain Crowder’s likeliest destination. However, the Bucks and Suns have been unable to find a suitable agreement […]

As we’ve entered the final month of 2022, we’ve seen some teams have gained a lot of momentum like the Grizzlies, Knicks, Timberwolves, Pelicans, and even the Blazers. However, some teams have also struggled early in December, skidding through their assignments and losing ground in the standings. These include the Suns, Raptors, Heat, and Wizards. […]

Chris Paul vs. Jose Alvarado is the point guard rivalry we never knew we needed. The back-to-back New Orleans Pelicans and Phoenix Suns clashes last week gave it the spotlight once again ever since it began during last season’s first-round playoff matchup. Tempers flared once again in their Friday matchup as Zion Williamson threw down […]

The Phoenix Suns, and Chris Paul in particular, took issue with Zion Williamson throwing down a windmill dunk in the closing seconds of their loss to the Pelicans on Friday while the game had already been decided. On Sunday, the Suns had the opportunity for a little revenge in a rematch with the Pelicans, but […]

The Phoenix Suns have been linked with Kyle Kuzma as of late, but sure enough, he’s not the only one that the team is interested in as they look to get more help for Chris Paul and Devin Booker. Apparently, the Suns are also eyeing a potential deal with the Houston Rockets where they could […]

Right now, there’s a lot of buzz surrounding Kyle Kuzma and his future with the Washington Wizards. With the 27-year-old potentially a flight risk for the Wizards this summer (he has a player option for next year), a handful of teams have already been linked to a potential trade for the 6-foot-9 forward. According to […]

The Phoenix Suns have a rematch with the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday after dropping Friday’s game against them. This time, they’ll most likely be without star guard Devin Booker as per Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic. Devin Booker (hamstring) QUESTIONABLE Sunday at #Pelicans . #Suns — Duane Rankin (@DuaneRankin) December 10, 2022 Following […]

One of basketball’s newest and most heated rivalries is due another installment after Zion Williamson helped heighten existing tension between the New Orleans Pelicans and Phoenix Suns on Friday. Too bad Devin Booker could be primed to miss Sunday’s matchup between these contentious Western Conference powers. Booker was spotted leaving Saturday’s shootaround at Smoothie King […]

Much has been made with Zion Williamson’s last-second dunk for the New Orleans Pelicans during Friday night’s win over the Phoenix Suns. Not too many folks liked the fact that Zion went up for an eye-popping 360 dunk with the game already won. The Pelicans fans loved it, though, but the case was not the […]

Zion Williamson’s 360 last second dunk in the New Orleans Pelicans 128-117 victory over the Phoenix Suns drew backlash from players. Notably, Phoenix’s Cam Payne called out Williamson. But Deandre Ayton offered a surprising reaction to the incident. “I turned my back and I walked off (the court),” Ayton said in reference to the benches […]

New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson admitted that his late-game 360-degree dunk in their blowout win against the Phoenix Suns was “out of character,” but for him, he needed to do it. Speaking to reporters after their 128-117 win, Williamson noted that he wanted to make a statement after Chris Paul and co. sent his […]

Zion Williamson led the way for the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday night as they emerged with a huge victory over the Phoenix Suns. The 22-year-old dropped 35 points on 13-of-17 shooting against Phoenix as he helped the Pels to a 128-117 win over Chris Paul and Co. Williamson left quite an impression after that […]

The New Orleans Pelicans’ 128-117 win over the Phoenix Suns on Friday night was smeared by a late-game altercation between the two teams. This was after the always-entertaining Zion Williamson decided to go for a last-second dunk with the game already won. Chris Paul and Co. clearly did not appreciate Zion’s decision to break an […]

Zion Williamson put on a show yet again for the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday night. The Phoenix Suns, however, did not appreciate his antics late in the game.

In we’re being real here, the Washington Wizards entered this season with little to no expectations. The Eastern Conference is too stacked for Washington to legitimately compete for a top-six or even a top-eight spot, but they were off to an incredible start at 10-7. Kristaps Porzingis, Bradley Beal, and Kyle Kuzma have all been […]

Brittney Griner is on her way back home after being wrongfully detained in Russia since last February.

It was a moment of defeat when Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics watched the Golden State Warriors celebrate their latest NBA championship at TD Garden after Game 6 of the 2022 NBA Finals. However, it was also a moment of inspiration for Brown and company. According to the Celtics star, he was humbled by […]

The Phoenix Suns got demolished in their home court by the Boston Celtics Wednesday night. The suffering at the hands of Jayson Tatum and company was so bad that Devin Booker felt like the Suns deserve to get another loss for that defeat. "Feels like that game should count for two losses." Devin Booker after […]

If there’s anything Chris Paul, Devin Booker, and the Phoenix Suns want to forget, it’s the embarrassing Game 7 loss they suffered at the hands of Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks during the second round of last year’s playoffs. However, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and the rest of the Boston Celtics don’t want anyone […]

Chris Paul is close to returning, and the Phoenix Suns indicated as much as they upgraded his status for Wednesday’s game against the Boston Celtics. It is still unknown if All-Star point guard will actually be able to play, but the Suns labeled him as questionable for the contest. He has been out for 14 […]

We’re already nearing December 15th, which means that teams are likely going to be more active on the trade market. Players who signed as free agents over the summer will become trade eligible by the said date, and activity in the trade market is expected to pick up. This could mean that Jae Crowder could […]

The highly anticipated showdown between Luka Doncic and Devin Booker was quite disappointing, to say the least, with the Phoenix Suns star failing to live up to expectations once again when facing his Dallas Mavericks counterpart. It has been just a few days since Booker exploded for 51 points against the Chicago Bulls, so there […]

Luka Doncic is one of the best players in the NBA today, and according to Phoenix Suns head coach Monty Williams, there’s one area where the Dallas Mavericks star really stands out. Speaking to reporters before the Mavs and the Suns play on Monday, Williams heaped a ton of praise on Doncic and called him […]

The Phoenix Suns may have blown a 10-point lead entering the fourth quarter in Friday night’s 122-121 loss to the Houston Rockets, but that won’t be their most pressing concern after the game. While Mikal Bridges, the Suns’ do-it-all 3 and D wing, played 37 minutes in the loss, he may have ended up hurting […]

The Phoenix Suns will be without star point guard Chris Paul for the 12th straight game on Friday against the Houston Rockets.

NBA Twitter thought it was going to be an uneventful night with only one game on the slate. Well, Kanye West had other plans. The matchup between the Dallas Mavericks and the Detroit Pistons turned out to be a nail-biter, with a shorthanded Pistons side taking down Luka Doncic and Co. in overtime. Killian Hayes […]

With Kanye West, you can never really tell what you’re going to get, especially on social media. On Thursday night, Kanye dropped a bombshell revelation, accusing Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul of having an affair with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian. https://twitter.com/kanyewest/status/1598521964787896321 Kanye just came out of nowhere with that tweet that no one definitely […]

Devin Booker is HIM. The Phoenix Suns superstar came out with one of the most mind-blowing performances of his career on Wednesday night as he led the Suns to a 132-113 blowout win over the Chicago Bulls. Booker exploded for a season-high 51 points in just 31 minutes of play. The three-time All-Star astoundingly went […]

Devin Booker has always been an elite scorer, but he never got the respect he deserves as many view his scoring outbursts in the past as empty stats for a mediocre Phoenix Suns team. After his 51-point game on Wednesday to lead the Suns to the 132-113 victory over the Chicago Bulls, though, fans might […]

Devin Booker had one of the most efficient, volume-scoring games the league has ever seen. Through three quarters, Booker erupted for a season-high 51 points on a ridiculous 20-25 shooting from the field. DAs is usually the case with an offensive onslaught such as this, the Phoenix Suns ended up taking a huge, 106-81 lead […]

Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker is no stranger to absurd scoring outbursts. Back when he was just a sophomore, Booker dropped 70 points, foreshadowing just how elite of a scorer he’d end up becoming. Surely enough, Booker was at it again with an eye-popping point tally after he dropped 51 points on the Chicago Bulls’ […]

Kevin Durant himself dropped 39 points on Wednesday night, but even the Brooklyn Nets star couldn’t help but be impressed with what Devin Booker and Jayson Tatum did in their respective games. Booker exploded for 51 points to help the Phoenix Suns take down the Chicago Bulls, 132-113. And he did it in an incredibly […]
