The Pelicans have multiple players out BUT they have won their last two games and Zion Williamson is playing great ball.

We need this one. If we play as good as we played @ Memphis we will win.


Injuries:

Pelicans
Brandon Boston OUT.
Dejounte Murray OUT.
Herbert Jones OUT.
Kelly Olynyk OUT.
Bruce Brown OUT.

Suns
Cody Martin OUT.
Monte Morris OUT.

Legit injury. Low back soreness.

He has been questionable before the last two games, but finally couldn't play in any of them.

Not a big deal because he was already out of the rotation.

Bradley Beal (calf) now listed questionable Thursday.


I can't believe it. I have never seen a player with less durability than Beal.

Just another fluky injury. Bad luck, nothing more.

27 teams are already lining up to exchange in offseason all their young players + all their unprotected picks for our superstars.

Another day, another beautiful struggle
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Here comes a serious playoff push it’s now or never Phoenix. Maybe we can get in and upset OKC that would be cray cray.

It’s not that difficult we just need our stars to wake up and play better defense while suddenly becoming alpha males similar to Butler & Dray. Then our bench needs to play suffocating defense too as we somehow manage to become top 12 in defense over our next 25 games. If those things happen we will definitely reach the finals and win our first title. It’s pretty simple man.
