The Phoenix Suns will look to put February’s struggles behind them as March — and the season’s final stretch — begins. Phoenix opened the month by moving to 35-26 on the season with a convincing win over the Sacramento Kings. As they get healthier, each of the Suns’ remaining games will have major bearing on their chances of moving into the West’s top six — and out of the Play-In Tournament.   As it stands, over half of Phoenix’s 13 March opponents have records below .500, though there is more than what meets the eye with respect to their records...

The Phoenix Suns took care of business Tuesday, completiing the season sweep of the Sacramento Kings with a 114-103 win. It was a positive for the return of Devin Booker, who scored 17 points in his first game back from a hip injury, while Jalen Green scored a team-high 20 points to go along with seven rebounds.   Rounding out the list of top performers are Collin Gillespie, who had 17 points, nine assists and six rebounds while Oso Ighodaro recorded a 14-point, 14-rebound double-double in 26 minutes off the bench. With the win, the Suns move to 35-26 on t...

The Phoenix Suns are struggling as of late, and while there are a number of factors contributing to the struggles, the issues with the team’s center rotation are impossible to ignore. Mark Williams has had trouble getting involved offensively and his defensive impact has not been felt, Oso Ighodaro has had the typical peaks and valleys of a young player, and Khaman Maluach has yet to fully crack the rotation to play meaningful minutes.   While Phoenix’s shortcomings on the perimeter can be attributed to the lack of depth due to injuries, there is much...

The Phoenix Suns’ offensive woes continued Thursday as they shot 36.7% from the field in a 97-81 loss tot he Boston Celtics. Phoenix was again without Devin Booker, Dillon Brooks, Jordan Goodwin and Haywood Highsmith, but Boston did not have Jaylen Brown nor Jayson Tatum in the win.   With the loss, the Suns fall to 33-26 on the season and have dropped seven of their last 10 games.

The Phoenix Suns have lost six of their last nine games and the injuries continue to pile up at the worst possible time, so is it time to panic? Not only is Phoenix now 33-25 on the season, but it will also be without Devin Booker (hip), Dillon Brooks (hand) and Jordan Goodwin (calf) for the foreseeable future as they each recover from their respective injuries.   With a very difficult stretch on the horizon, the Suns will need to find answers on the fly. And fast. Monday, the PHNX Suns crew assesses where they are w...

The Phoenix Suns were without Grayson Allen, Devin Booker, Dillon Brooks, Jordan Goodwin and Haywood Highsmith Sunday and did not have nearly enough firepower to keep up with the Portland Trail Blazers, losing 92-77.   The Suns shot an icy 36.9% from the field and an icier 25.7% from 3-point range, and couldn’t overcome their shooting woes. Collin Gillespie found his rhythm in the fourth quarter but it was far too late as his team-high 18 points weren’t nearly enough. Jalen Green continued to struggle as he went 6-of-16 from the field, bringing him to 12-of-42 over his l...

Thanks to a buzzer-beating 3-pointer from Jalen Green, the Phoenix Suns outlasted the Orlando Magic for a 113-110 double overtime win. Green struggled mightily throughout the game, but stepped up when it mattered most for two buckets in the clutch to finish with 16 points on 6-of-26 shooting from the field.   Grayson Allen shined brightest for the Suns, scoring a team-high 27 points in a game where Devin Booker was unavailable and both Dillon Brooks and Jordan Goodwin were forced to exit with injuries.

The Phoenix Suns’ night went from good, to bad, to worse, as a hot start from Jalen Green was marred by an apparent hip injury to Devin Booker, who was limited to nine minutes of action. Without their All-Star guard, the Suns did not have nearly enough to keep up with the surging San Antonio Spurs, who won their seventh consecutive game thanks to an all-around team performance.   Green one of just a few bright spots for the Suns, as he finished with a game-high 26 points (on 11-of-23 shooting) in his first start since November.
