As it currently stands, the Phoenix Suns are riding a wave of momentum.
8-0 in the bubble. Monty Williams winning the coach of the bubble award. Devin Booker scoring 30 points per game in the most meaningful games of his career.
On paper, the Suns should have absolutely no trouble recruiting free agents this winter. And indeed, several prominent names have already been linked to Phoenix.
But for as much progress as James Jones has made in rebooting the franchise’s culture, he may still find one select group of free agents impossible to reach.
