Phoenix Suns: Stability

On and off the court, the Phoenix Suns have been to hell and back again about 17 different times this season. Despite frequent injuries to Devin Booker and T.J. Warren, no established NBA point guard and veterans like Trevor Ariza and Ryan Anderson dialing it in, things have possibly, maybe, (NO SUDDEN MOVEMENTS) stabilized.

Ariza is gone, De’Anthony Melton has proven a capable starting point guard, Warren is quietly enjoying his best season yet, Booker is back and actually 100 percent healthy, and this team may have finally settled into a set rotation. It might be the biggest Christmas miracle in the NBA.

It’s no coincidence the Suns have won four straight games during this stretch, playing their best basketball of the season. A trade for an upgrade at the 1 would still be nice, but at this point, all this young group really needs is some structure and stability for once. Phoenix may have finally turned a corner, but don’t say it too loud or change anything. You’ll just scare it off.
