Even with recent struggles, through about a month of the NBA season, the Phoenix Suns are still the surprise of the NBA.
With Deandre Ayton still in the midst of his 25-game suspension, the team is playing very well together and even above their talent level.
With a strong system and role players excelling the team looks poised for a playoff push this season.
Looking at the Suns’ roster this year, it is hard not to see the similarities they share with two Pacific Division opponents, the Sacramento Kings and Los Angeles Clippers.
Like last year’s Kings, the Suns are outperforming expectations and are led by a young roster featuring several players with All-Star potential.
