The Suns were nearing a catastrophic loss on Sunday night against the 4-20 Washington Wizards as they entered the 3rd quarter trailing by double digits in front of the home crowd at the Footprint Cetner.
Having lost six of their last eight games, bringing Phoenix to just one game above the .500 mark, fans were on the brink watching their team full of stars trail one of the worst teams in the NBA.
This, of course, led to some, at least in hindsight, overreactions on X.
One tweet in particular caught Suns’ Jusuf Nurkic’s attention.
The tweet, which was more than likely satire, suggested a trade with the Wizards that included Nurkic, Nassir Little, and Bol Bol heading to Detroit.
