Former Suns coach Alvin Gentry asks Phoenix for 'patience' with Igor Kokoskov

OKLAHOMA CITY — Patience.

Alvin Gentry hopes the Phoenix Suns have some for his former assistant and dear friend — Igor Kokoskov.

“I think you just got to have patience and you got to let the thing grow and if they do, I think they’re going to have a team that’s going to be good and is going to be good for a long time,” he said.

Going into Monday's game against the Thunder in Oklahoma City, the Suns (2-10) are riding a three-game losing streak and have the worst record in the Western Conference.

Only Cleveland (1-11) has a worse NBA record.
