The Addition Of Jalen Green MIGHT Be The Start Of A Phoenix Suns Run That NOBODY Was Expecting…

Phoenix Suns eye deep playoff run with Jalen Green’s explosive return to full strength. Can this new-look lineup, anchored by Devin Booker’s clutch play and Dylan Brooks’ two-way prowess, overcome their rebounding woes and chemistry hurdles to become Western Conference finalists?

Benjamin Garcia breaks down the Suns’ evolving identity, highlighting the impact of Jalen Green’s athleticism, defensive upside, and transition game alongside core talents like Mark Williams and Ryan Dunn. Key discussion points include the Suns’ ceiling with a healthy roster, the importance of forced turnovers to offset paint struggles, and why fans should temper expectations as the new group builds cohesion. With the chase for playoff seeding heating up, Benjamin Garcia asks if Phoenix’s young nucleus has what it takes to surprise the NBA elite.
