Some people collect stamps. Others like baseball cards or coins. The Phoenix Suns collect point guards. At least that’s the perception around the NBA. After acquiring Isaiah Thomas in a sign-and-trade deal with the Sacramento Kings and giving Eric Bledsoe a fat, new contract, the Suns boast three top-notch point guards. The trio also includes […]
The Phoenix Suns and Arizona Sports 98.7 FM signed a new multi-year agreement to keep Arizona Sports as the team’s premier radio station. “There’s no better example of a true partnership than out ongoing relationship with Arizona Sports and the Bonneville family,” said Suns president Jason Rowley in a statement. “For 39 years, our fans […]
Phoenix Suns rookie forward T.J. Warren will be out at least another week with a small crack in his thumb, according to head coach Jeff Hornacek. It was reported last week that Warren, the first of Phoenix’s three first-round picks in the 2014 NBA Draft, would miss time with the injury, and there was no […]
If the Phoenix Suns are to be successful this season, and maybe even make the playoffs for the first time in five years, then they must excel in several areas.
The Phoenix Suns have exercised their 2015-16 options on guard Archie Goodwin, center Alex Len and center Miles Plumlee. Goodwin, 20, played 52 games as a rookie last season and averaged 3.7 points per contest. Len, the fifth overall pick in the 2013 draft, played in 42 contests as a rookie, averaging 2.0 points and […]
Well that’s not nice. Late in the third quarter of Wednesday’s preseason game between the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Clippers, Suns guard Eric Bledsoe had the ball near the three-point line. Looking to shake defender Jared Cunningham, he started dribbling hard to his left before pulling up to shoot a three. Cunningham, unfortunately, was […]

PHOENIX, Ariz. — There are only nine days before the start of the regular season and Phoenix Suns second-year center Alex Len has yet to see a single minute of action in the preseason. That’s expected to change soon, perhaps as early as Tuesday. The Suns play the Los Angeles Lakers in Anaheim before closing […]
The Eric Bledsoe-Goran Dragic-Isaiah Thomas triumvirate proved to be thrice as nice in the Suns 121-90 preseason win over the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday at US Airways Center.
The 2014-15 NBA regular season hasn’t started yet, but undoubtedly you’ve heard references to the number of guards the Phoenix Suns have on their roster. In case you’re wondering or scrambling to a roster to find out just how many backcourt players the Suns have, the answer is seven. Of the seven, only one will […]
The Phoenix Suns reduced their roster to 16 players by waiving guards Joe Jackson and Casey Prather and forward Jamil Wilson Tuesday.

The 6-foot-1 guard had two points and two rebounds in the […]
PHOENIX, Ariz. — For a first impression, the Phoenix Suns failed to impress. Sure, there were some bright spots in the preseason opener against Brazilian club team Flamengo. Isaiah Thomas’ 18 second half points off the bench comes to mind, even Eric Bledsoe’s 15 points on 7-of-10 shooting or Marcus Morris’ 10-point, seven rebound, four […]
Phoenix Suns center Alex Len continues to battle injuries, as he is currently sidelined with a fractured bone in the pinky finger on his right hand. Len was expected to show improvement throughout the 2014 summer, but missed almost all of the Las Vegas Summer League with a broken bone in the same finger. The […]
Life in the Western Conference of the National Basketball Association is rough. Just ask the Phoenix Suns, who came out of nowhere to win 48 games during the 2013-14 season. Most years, 48 wins will get you into the postseason. Hell, last year in the East, that number would have given the Suns the third-most […]
