Are The Phoenix Suns The 1-4 Team That Started The Season OR The 5-1 Team Over Their Last Six Games?

Are The Phoenix Suns The 1-4 Team That Started The Season OR The 5-1 Team Over Their Last Six Games?

The Phoenix Suns have surged from a 1-4 start to winning 5 of their last 6 games, dominating opponents by 18+ points in most victories. But which team represents their true identity?

Hosts Benjamin Garcia and John Voita from @SunsJAM break down the Suns’ dramatic turnaround, examining the team chemistry under Jordan Ott that’s creating a fluidity not seen in four years. They analyze Jalen Green’s hamstring injury and why Suns fans need to stop the “woe is me” mentality, discuss Mark Williams’ defensive anchor role, and debate Devin Booker’s irreplaceable offensive excellence. The conversation takes a controversial turn when they explore whether red-hot Grayson Allen and Royce O’Neale should be traded to restock draft capital while their value peaks. With Allen leading the league in threes made, could the Suns flip role players into multiple first-round picks?

Tune in for an honest assessment of whether this winning streak is sustainable and what moves could position Phoenix for a championship run.
