One for the ages

Man that Kings team was stacked...will never have a better title chance

Well....................

Richuan Holmes being out for remainder of season (personal reasons) can only further help our momentum in this upcoming game.

Suns dodge yet another bullet. First Anthony davis, then Murray, then Kawhi, now holmes.

That's Awesome! Do you live in Sacramento?

Sacramento played the bucks tought the other day, hope the suns don't underestimate them.

Any news on when Cam. J and J. Crowder will be back? Be nice to have them get in a few games again before the playoffs start.

Crowder is a game time decision and Cam Jo is listed as out again. Fox is questionable too. Hopefully Book and Ayton want to show the Kings that they aren’t in the same class as them too.

I don't think Ayton is capable of showing up against weak opponents. But we'll see what happens.

I'd guess Crowder sits out again today, especially with Torrey Craig playing as well as he is.

They have 2 days off before they play Minnesota. Minnesota and Denver is the last B2B for the season.

I'd expect Crowder to sit against Minnesota, but potentially return against Denver.

As for Cam Johnson, as I said in the other thread, Flex tweeted earlier last week, that Cam would be another 2 weeks out, which puts his return against the Lakers or Thunder, potentially April 1st against Memphis best case scenario if his recovery is quicker than expected.

hey, why is Campayne out? oh i see, non-covid illness per Rankin

Damn Payne is out.

Looks like De'Aaron Fox is out for Sacramento as well.

Seeing this is good as it somewhat washes the two out. Wonder if it's back to "point" Book for this one or if perhaps Holiday or Payton get the nod?

Payton starting likely means this is Payton's last chance to make a case for a roster spot before the playoffs.

Otherwise, I'm predicting he gets cut and Wainright or Lundberg get promoted to the playoff roster.

Since Lundberg is on a two way, I don't think he can be included unless the Suns fully pick him up.

Correct, Wainright is also on a 2-way contract too.

I just think if Payton can't play well today, he's probably gone. CP3, Payne, and Holiday are likely gonna take the bulk of the PG minutes in the playoffs.

Theres no need to have Payton, especially if he can't excel in a situation like there is against the Kings.
