NBA Cup 2025 Showdown: Can Underdog Spurs Upset Lakers and Will Suns’ Firepower Outshine Thunder’s Grit?
All of which, y’know, would seem to make for pretty tough sledding for the Suns … particularly considering they’ll enter the matchup without leading scorer and assist man Devin Booker, who’s sidelined by a right groin strain. Add in the ongoing absence of Jalen Green, whom Phoenix imported from Houston in the trade that sent Kevin Durant to the Rockets, with a strained right hamstring, and it feels unlikely that Phoenix will have the firepower to go toe-to-toe with the defending champs.
And yet: “Unlikely” has kind of been the Suns’ stock in trade this season.
