Pacific Division Preview: The Phoenix Suns are ready to turn the page with a new young core

Authors note: Through the generous contributions of fellow SB Nation writers, I am embarking on a Pacific Division preview series in which I get expert opinions on each of the non-Lakers teams by writers who cover them on a daily basis. First up in the series, the Phoenix Suns.

In what was only the first week of The 2017-18 season, the Phoenix Suns’ were handed a franchise worst 48-point loss in their season opener, saw then point guard, Eric Bledsoe, infamously tweet out: “I Dont wanna be here” and soon after fired head coach, Earl Watson, after the team's 0-3 start.
