What happened?

The Phoenix Suns are gearing up for the new season after a 45-win campaign and playoff appearance last year. However, they were swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of the playoffs. The team made several roster changes, including trading for Miles Bridges, and re-signed restricted free agent Mark Williams and unrestricted free agents Collin Gillespie and Jordan Goodwin.

Why it matters for Phoenix Suns

The Suns' offseason moves have sparked interest among fans, who are eager to see how the team will perform this season. The team's ability to stay healthy will be crucial, as injuries plagued them last season. Jalen Green played only 32 games due to a right hamstring strain, while Dillon Brooks missed 18 games with a fractured left hand. Mark Williams also missed 15 straight games with a left foot third metatarsal stress reaction.
