1. The Playoffs And All That Jazz

The Opponent: Utah Jazz
Date: Apr. 3, 2016 @ 3 p.m.
Nationally Televised? No

The Jazz aren’t the best team Phoenix will play in April, with matchups against the Wizards, Hawks, Rockets, Pelicans and Clippers looming in the final month of the regular season. But not one single game may be more important than Phoenix’s final head-to-head with Utah.

The Jazz morphed into the league’s premier defense after trading away Enes Kanter last season, and will more than likely make the playoffs. But Dante Exum‘s injury may hold the Jazz back from reaching their full potential for 2015-16, so there’s a chance this is a team that will be in the running for one of the Western Conference’s final playoff spots.

In the home stretch of the season, every game is vital, especially in the West where playoff seeding almost always comes down to the wire. But this game could determine the season series and ultimately, where the Suns stand among the fringe playoff teams.
