The Phoenix Suns are still in a rebuilding mode, but that isn’t stopping the coaching staff from trying to win as many games as possible by putting the best players on the court at all times.
This obviously includes the starting lineup where the team’s best unit begins every game and plays the most together. First-year head coach Igor Kokoskov has had to juggle that starting unit several times this season (six different starting rotations in 19 games), but as he is now apparently settling on Devin Booker as the team’s regular starting point guard, moving Mikal Bridges to the starting lineup alongside him makes perfect sense.
