After extending their losing streak against the Rockets, not much time remains for James Jones to improve this season’s roster for the Phoenix Suns. The primary focus all year has been on point guard, or lack there of, but the surplus of wings has masked the dearth at power forward, where Dragan Bender, Ryan Anderson, and Trevor Ariza were expected to cover for the team.
It’s hard to say the team has gotten by without a power forward as they compete for the worst record in the league, but wing depth and the wingspans of Kelly Oubre and Mikal Bridges have helped maintain pressure against opposing fours.
