Suns Weekly Aug 17: Scheduling, In-Season Tourney impacts on the Phoenix Suns

The Phoenix Suns official game schedule, including their group play ‘Cup games’ for the early-season ratings grab tournament, will come out later this week.

In a normal year, the Suns would play either three or four games against every West opponent and two games against every East opponent, with 41 at home and 41 on the road. The schedules are very balanced, with the only variant being which in-conference teams you play four times versus just three times.

This year will be a little different though. The NBA will only announce 80 of each team’s 82 games this week, with the remainder dependent on the In-Season Tournament.
