Devin Booker's future aside, there are roster defects for the Phoenix Suns. A sweep by the Thunder upheld some of those beliefs, but it also built up role players like Dillon Brooks, Collin Gillespie and Oso Ighodaro.
Devin Booker tweaked an ankle, the Phoenix rotation tightened but the Thunder remained a machine. Game 3 was the Suns' best shot at a win, but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was the star in front of a sleepy crowd at Mortgage Matchup Center.
Devin Booker used his postgame press conference to point a finger at officials, Dillon Brooks went on an offensive heater and the Phoenix Suns showed a little more fight in Game 2 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, who lost Jalen Williams to a hamstring injury.
Devin Booker didn't get much help with Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green struggling, while the other Phoenix Suns gave even less. The Oklahoma City Thunder cruised to a 119-84 win in Game 1 of their playoff series.
The Phoenix Suns will face the Oklahoma City Thunder thanks to a win over the Golden State Warriors that included a big Jalen Green effort and some Jordan Goodwin assistance.
A loss in the 7-8 play-in game by the Phoenix Suns raised big-picture questions about Devin Booker and led to a flood of Jordan Ott complaints. How will the Suns rebound in a must-win game after Portland attacked their weaknesses?
The Portland Trail Blazers have size and rebounding to cause problems for the Phoenix Suns in their NBA Play-In matchup. Where do the Suns have the edge?
The Phoenix Suns, who are now locked into the No. 7 seed, have injuries and changing rotational pieces. It'll be a thrilling, odd play-in matchup against either the Los Angeles Clippers or Portland Trail Blazers.
The Phoenix Suns have Dillon Brooks and Mark Williams back, but they'll be faced with tough questions about rotations as the offense has faltered and the defense has fallen off with five games left in the regular season.

The Phoenix Suns are in the thick of a race to avoid the play-in, but their recent run makes it look like they've hit their ceiling on offense, which hasn't been helped by the dips in defense. Plus, a look at the NCAA Tournament and how important it'll be in the shuffling of a very talented 2026 NBA Draft class.
The Phoenix Suns responded to their worst loss of the year with two wins, including one against the surging Charlotte Hornets. Khaman Maluach and Rasheer Fleming are standing out, while Jalen Green and Ryan Dunn are trying to find themselves.
Phoenix Suns coach Jordan Ott appears aggressive in finding out lineup answers quickly, and we're at a tipping point for Mark Williams in a bad way and Rasheer Fleming in a good way.
Devin Booker, Dillon Brooks, Jordan Goodwin and Grayson Allen have already gotten hurt, the Phoenix Suns are still surviving and rookies Rasheer Fleming and Khaman Maluach played meaningful minutes.
Nick Richards was dealt in a three-team deal that brings back Amir Coffey and Cole Anthony's contract. What did the Phoenix Suns gain by standing pat, and what else stood out NBA-wide?
Dillon Brooks is coming off a career game against the Detroit Pistons, while the Phoenix Suns hope to get Jalen Green back from injury. We talk about Devin Booker's and Brooks' NBA All-Star possibilities and more.
Dillon Brooks, Grayson Allen, Royce O'Neale and others have built strong value on the Phoenix Suns. How tradeable are they? And would the Suns even consider moving them?

Dillon Brooks has produced a few whoopsie moments lately, but the Phoenix Suns are still treading water despite individual players, including Devin Booker, finding their first ruts of 2025-26.
The Phoenix Suns stole another game they probably should not have against the Minnesota Timberwolves before getting clobbered by the Oklahoma City Thunder. You could say they're in a holding pattern until Devin Booker and Jalen Green can return.
Devin Booker has gone down with an injury, but the Phoenix Suns have showed they might be able to stay afloat behind hot starts from Dillon Brooks and Collin Gillespie.
Devin Booker has had a rough go of late, but the Phoenix Suns' bench has kept things relatively afloat more than we thought possible. A review of a loss to the Houston Rockets and a look ahead to, yes, NBA Cup standings.
