“The switch has flipped to winning.”
Majority owner Robert Sarver uttered this phrase on the Burns & Gambo show less than 24 hours after he fired general manager Ryan McDonough last month.

At this point 17 games into the 2017-18 campaign, even after firing Earl Watson, interim head coach Jay Triano led Phoenix to a 6-11 record. Now, new head coach Igor Kokoskov has struggled with balancing rotations while the youth on this roster it’s showing itself through way too often, sitting at the bottom of the Western Conference with a 3-14 record.
