Deep dives
The Phoenix Suns' bold moves for the West
The Phoenix Suns, led by their owner, James Jones, have made bold moves in the offseason, assembling a team with an eye on winning the Western Conference. While some may have doubted their strategy, the addition of Eric Gordon as the final piece has changed the narrative. With Devin Booker as the focal point, the Suns have a legitimate chance at winning the West and securing a top seed. However, the success will heavily depend on the performance of DeAndre Ayton, who needs to excel in rebounding and defense. Overall, the West has become wide open, making the Suns a strong contender.
