They play fast and fearless on both sides of the court. They may be young, but you wouldn’t know it if you watched them play. The Suns haven’t made...

Plumlee's key play helps Suns finish Miles ahead of Kings
PHOENIX -- Thinking pragmatically, it was only one big play in a game crowded with them.

"The crowd was kind of quiet," Suns coach Jeff Hornacek said when asked about what certainly seemed like the key event in Friday's 116-107 triumph -- the team's season-high fourth in a row -- over the...

Phoenix Suns thriving under Jeff Hornacek
The Suns were supposed to be the laughing stock of the NBA entering the ’13-’14 season. They were supposed to tanking, obtaining a high draft pick in the deepest draft since 2003.

Shaquille O'Neal choked out a teammate while with the Suns
In February of 2008, Steve Kerr, who had taken over as GM of the Phoenix Suns, broke up 7-Seconds-or-Less, forever. He ended one of the greatest offensive teams of all time, with the premise that the team's approach could not succeed in the playoffs (despite multiple playoff victories) due to its inability to get past San Antonio in the infamous Robert-Horry-hip-checks-Steve...

NBA Early Season Impressions: Phoenix Suns
The Phoenix Suns have impressed, then not impressed, and then impressed me all in less than half of a season.
