Standing tall but limited: Examining the Suns’ center position

The Phoenix Suns are now 3-1 after taking down the Los Angeles Lakers, thanks to an impressive offensive output from Devin Booker and Kevin Durant, along with a solid defensive stand by Royce O’Neal and Ryan Dunn. Booker and Durant combined for a flurry of points, showcasing their scoring versatility and giving the Suns an edge in a highly competitive matchup.

We all know that Nurkic will struggle in a matchup against Lakers center Anthony Davis, but is he too far in his head about things where it is affecting his play?
