The only time Suns fans really hear from Robert Sarver, the managing partner of the team, is when he’s on The Burns & Gambo Show to break down his decisions. Rarely do Valley hoops lovers get to learn about the man whose face is the symbol behind any of the highs and lows the team goes through.
An appearance last week on The Outlet, the Suns’ in-house podcast, gave fans a peek behind the curtain at the Wizard of Oz, so to speak, the man pulling the strings within the organization. Sarver talked about where his competitive streak came from, what inspired him to invest in an NBA team, and the ways the Suns have given back to the community during the NBA stoppage.
