RSS FeedKhaman Maluach, Koa Peat and Rasheer Fleming have shown signs in Las Vegas. We have a healthy debate about who's looked the best in Summer League and which Phoenix Suns might actually parlay that into NBA playing time.
The Phoenix Suns' trade to acquire Miles Bridges and signing of Mark Williams only adds to roster questions. Did they get worse?
Arizona Wildcats and Perry Pumas product Koa Peat stays in-state for the triple-stage growth as an Arizonan after the Phoenix Suns traded into the first round of the 2026 NBA Draft. And as they say in the NBA, triples is best.
Collin Gillespie and Jordan Goodwin are re-signed with the Phoenix Suns. And that sets the table for a 2026 NBA Draft where we think the Suns will trade up to add an impact rookie.
We take a top-layer look at how much the Phoenix Suns could add, subtract and trade this offseason. Could Zion Williamson or any other big names be on the table? Plus, NBA Draft Lottery talk.
Devin Booker's future aside, there are roster defects for the Phoenix Suns. A sweep by the Thunder upheld some of those beliefs, but it also built up role players like Dillon Brooks, Collin Gillespie and Oso Ighodaro.
Devin Booker tweaked an ankle, the Phoenix rotation tightened but the Thunder remained a machine. Game 3 was the Suns' best shot at a win, but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was the star in front of a sleepy crowd at Mortgage Matchup Center.
Devin Booker used his postgame press conference to point a finger at officials, Dillon Brooks went on an offensive heater and the Phoenix Suns showed a little more fight in Game 2 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, who lost Jalen Williams to a hamstring injury.
Devin Booker didn't get much help with Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green struggling, while the other Phoenix Suns gave even less. The Oklahoma City Thunder cruised to a 119-84 win in Game 1 of their playoff series.
The Phoenix Suns will face the Oklahoma City Thunder thanks to a win over the Golden State Warriors that included a big Jalen Green effort and some Jordan Goodwin assistance.
