The Suns are wonderful about assisting a fallen teammate off the floor. They have back-line defenders who assist a teammate beaten off the dribble.
With the most fundamental assist of basketball, however, they are lacking.
The Suns score most of their baskets unassisted, and could join the 2012-13 Suns as the only NBA teams to register that statistic since 2011-12 when Oklahoma City reached the Finals with Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden.
The Suns have been a low-assist team in recent years because of their roster emphasis on scoring guards, including the current trio of Eric Bledsoe, Devin Booker and Brandon Knight.
