Phoenix Suns Record – Looking Back at Last Season

The Suns were the ultimate head-scratchers last season, leaving fans and analysts alike scratching their heads in disbelief. With the talent they had on the roster, expectations were sky-high, yet they delivered a finale that fell flat. It’s safe to say most of the NBA world anticipated a much stronger showing from this team.

Final 2023-24 Record:

The Suns tied the knot on the season with a solid 49-33 record, even closing out strong by winning seven of their last ten games. So, where’s the twist? With three of the league's top scorers and a decent supporting cast, it was a shocker when they got swept in the first round of the playoffs, going down 4-0 to the Timberwolves. Talk about a major letdown!

Top Performers:

Like most teams nowadays, the Suns were led by their own big three. Kevin Durant and Devin Booker were filling it up, each averaging 27 points per game. Durant also added to his scoring with five assists and six rebounds, while Booker kept the play flowing with 6.9 assists. On the boards, Jusuf Nurkic led the way, securing a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds. So, how did this Suns squad find themselves in this position? Dive into our Phoenix Suns Trades section below to piece together the story!

Phoenix Suns Trades (Additions and Subtractions)

The offseason didn’t bring many surprises for the Phoenix Suns. Honestly, how could it when you’ve got three All-Stars sharing the court — and at those salary figures? There’s not much flexibility to bring in additional star talent without moving one of the big three. That said, there were some minor tweaks and changes in the role-player department.

Key Departures:

While the Suns didn’t experience any ‘major’ or ‘critical’ losses this offseason, they certainly felt the sting of letting veteran shooting guard Eric Gordon walk into free agency, where he ultimately signed with the 76ers. Adding to that, Phoenix also parted ways with forward Thaddeus Young after a brief stint, as he managed to make just 10 appearances for the team this season.

Key Additions:

Sorry to break it to you, but the Suns' additions this offseason are looking a bit sparse. Aside from drafting rookie forward Jalen Bridges from Baylor, they signed free agent backup point guard Tyus Jones, who’s expected to provide some solid minutes off the bench, helping to keep the offense humming when Booker, Beal, or Durant need a breather.

Phoenix Suns Head Coach Analysis

Following a lackluster season under Frank Vogel, the Suns decided it was time for a change. They’ve hired Mike Budenholzer as their head coach this year, clearly looking for a coach who knows what it takes to win it all and can bring a new perspective.

Expectations for This Season

Budenholzer brings a disciplined, almost ‘militant’ style to his coaching, shaped by his time under Greg Popovich. However, he faces a hefty challenge this season, navigating the complexities of coaching three ball-dominant stars while addressing the fallout from Frank Vogel’s tenure. This Suns squad has talent, but the spotlight is firmly on Coach Mike Budenholzer. He wasn’t brought in for a rebuild; the expectations are high. Wondering what kind of impact Budenholzer’s coaching could have on the Suns' championship odds? Don’t go anywhere — we’ve got the scoop you won’t want to miss

Phoenix Suns Prediction for the 2024-25 NBA Season

This might ruffle some feathers, but the Suns' NBA championship odds might not be as rosy as you think. Yes, they have Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker, along with a decent supporting cast that can chip in when needed. However, let’s get real: while the concept of a big three is all the rage, the actual success rate isn’t as impressive as you think. Many teams have tried this route, but not all big threes find their way to a championship ring, especially when their styles clash. All three are ball-dominant scorers who thrive with the rock in their hands, limiting their ability to create plays and opportunities for each other. Call me skeptical, but the stats and the game tape speak for themselves.

Regular Season Wins Prediction

Offensively, this team can attack any opposing defense from every angle: inside, outside, long-range, pick and roll — you name it. However, my real concern lies on the defensive side of things. Last season, they ranked third worst in opposing rebounding, allowing a staggering 41 boards per game. Given that this roster is nearly the same as last year’s, we can’t expect a dramatic turnaround without knowing what Coach Mike Budenholzer plans to implement in Phoenix’s game strategy on both ends of the court. Taking all of that into account, I’m predicting the Suns will finish the regular season with a 52-31 record.

Playoff Chances

NBA playoff predictions? Do we even need to have a section on this? This team is more than ready to make the playoffs — and I’m not talking about the Play-In tournament. With a roster full of championship, All-Star, and Olympic experience, there is no way this team will miss the playoffs. If they can stay healthy, you can count on the Suns to secure a spot among the top six seeds, no debate about it.

Key Players to Watch

Not exactly shocking, but like last season, it’ll be interesting to see what Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker can whip up this year under Budenholzer’s strategy. Given his success in winning a championship with the Bucks, featuring Giannis and Middleton, we can expect some elaborate offensive schemes designed to unlock their full potential.
