Phoenix Suns

  • ’17-18 Record: 21-61
  • ’17-18 Season Series: 3-1 (Jazz)
  • ’18-19 Advantage: Jazz

The Phoenix Suns have been pretty pathetic the past few seasons, but after adding former Jazz assistant coach Igor Kokoskov and first overall pick Deandre Ayton, I expect Phoenix to make a jump this upcoming season.

Despite the improvement, the Jazz are obviously in another league compared to the Suns. I hope Phoenix can get back to playing at a high level, because the fans deserve it. The Suns were always fun to watch until 2015.

I wish Igor nothing but the best in Phoenix. He has a lot of talent to work with in guys like Devin Booker, Josh Jackson and more.
