Welcome to a summertime series that navigates the countless sliding doors the Phoenix Suns organization has faced throughout its 56-year history. The “what ifs”, the “almosts”, the “so closes”; the team history is full of moments, decisions, and breaks (literally and figuratively) that will always leave us wondering what could have been.
This is Suns Sliding Doors.
I’ve talked plenty about injuries on the Suns Sliding Doors features. And I’ve talked about missed draft picks. The Suns have a long history of swinging and missing, and it feels like they are batting under the Mendoza line as an organization.
