Jalen Green Returns To The Rotation In ELECTRIC Fashion As The Phoenix Suns Beat The 76ers!
Phoenix Suns showcase new firepower as Jaylen Green returns, flashing explosive athleticism and breathing hope into a rejuvenated lineup. Despite spotty starter play, Benjamin Garcia spotlights how Phoenix’s full-strength roster managed a gritty road back-to-back, questioning whether the Suns have uncovered a dangerous new duo in Green and Devin Booker.
Key analysis centers on the Suns’ evolving rotation, Oso Ighodaro’s transformation into a two-way force, and persistent issues on the boards and in the paint. Can Jordan Ott fine-tune the guard-heavy lineup and address turnover woes before the playoffs? Benjamin Garcia dissects Booker’s clutch shot-making, the importance of Green’s health, and strategic options for boosting fast-break points instead of pursuing a trade. Tune in for everything Suns fans need to know as the team eyes a deeper postseason push.

Starting to see more people around town sporting suns gear , before season you only seen the homeless sporting suns gear, the city is starting to get suns fever ! Go Suns!
The SUNS OF ANARCHY don't give a SHITE about the NORMS. We're HERE, we WILL FIGHT YOU…TO…THE…DEATH. Best 3-Point shooting Suns team I've ever seen. TRADE NOBODY and look to the buyout market instead. The chemistry they're building is PRICELESS. LFG! MY POSITIVE SUNS RANT POSTING TO MY CHANNEL SOON.
10 games over .500? Wow.
Is it me or does Jalen Green look faster than everyone on the court?
I can't comprehend how much better they can be when he gets full minutes. What a shot in the arm to an already electric team!
Well I just finished my three-game road trip. New York Knicks Brooklyn Nets in Philadelphia 76ers. Got my son's cap autograph from Jalen Greene Dillon Brooks. I was disappointed Devin Booker seen me but passed me by and didn't want to sign my cap😢 but I was happy I got a three-game win streak I just little bit more satisfied with him just to sign and give me a fist pump😂
I also talked to Jordan ott the coach I told him I was proud of him happy he is our coach and for him to bring us a championship. He said we're trying..
I said that's all we ask for 💜🧡
Go suns
Given his potential defensively and his size, Dunn is a guy we'd love to be able to play more. It's nice he's back on a hot streak from 3, but he's got to prove it with a larger sample size. The bigger problem for Ryan is the fact that recently he's been fouling at a ridiculous rate and he is practically a walking turnover any time he has to dribble the ball or make a decision in the flow of the offense. It gets a bit tedious, especially considering how in need we are of his potential skill set. He's the one player on the team who really gives me headaches these days. Just want to see some gradual improvement in the awareness out there, especially on offense, but lately (apart from the 3pt shot) it feels more like regression. Hope he can sort it out.
Either way great game tn, good to see JG back on the floor!
The sun best player is not Devin Booker, their best player is Dillon Brooks. Bcos Without Dillon Brooks in that suns team, they would be in the Tanker as one of the worst teams in the NBA.
half a game back from 4!
Suns Up !!🎉
go sun's go
Oso with confidence is a bigger Amen Thompson. They basically do the same thing except that Amen is probably a little bit explosive.
Green Day! Shazam!!
Oso had 4 bad turnovers, they seemed to stand out tonight
Baby Oso going to be the next Giannis
" i was beating off fan boys " – Ben Garcia
Cant wait to see Green and Mark play more. Alpi isnt athletic like Mark, with Jalen being a slasher, should set up a lot of lobs
He's fast and his stride looks so long on the TV, thought he's a 6'7 or something, the KD trade it's already a big W so far.
I thought the suns played the rockets last night? 😂😂😂
Jalen makes suns job team easy
Ben was so happy to see Jalen come off the bench 😭 all jokes aside though Green's athleticism unlocked Oso and of course was good gravity to help the rest of the team get going when Booker was off the court. He already showed some great flashes of driving and kicking though and overall looked great imo
Grayson Allen has been averaging over 20 points per game on this road trip but never gets the credit he deserves for being a complete player
The more I watch the suns, the more I'm realizing that Devin Booker just isn't that good. Anyone can score 25 a game when they're shooting 20+ shots a game. Hes living off reputation
