Fully Healthy Squad
Injuries happen. They are part of the game. No team goes through the entire season unscathed.
We have heard all these clichés ad nauseam this season, but while they all might be true, teams don’t typically struggle this much with injuries.
During the last regular-season game against the Warriors, Deandre Ayton, Dario Saric, Frank Kaminsky, and Aron Baynes all sat out with their own respective lingering ailments.
The Phoenix Suns have been frustratingly tight-lipped about the prognosis of all these injuries, but hopefully, fans will see a fully healthy squad available to Monty Williams before the season ends.
Moreover, hopefully, James Jones gets the finally see the full squad he put together. We can give him all the criticism we want for not making any moves at the trade deadline, but the fact remains he never got to see what this team could do.
Whether that is a valid excuse or not is an argument for another day, but Suns fans can look forward to seeing a few games with the full complement of players available to them before the end of the year.
