Will the Suns’ ‘Big 3’ Unleash Their Full Power Just in Time for the Playoffs?
It was a brief but adequate depiction of the Suns’ stop-start season, an injury-riddled campaign that has limited Phoenix’s three best players to just 102 minutes together heading into Tuesday night. With just three games remaining in the regular season, the lack of continuity hasn’t exactly been a deterrent — Suns head coach Jordan Ott has done a quality job making lemonade out of an assortment of lemons — but there are still wrinkles to iron out ahead of the postseason.
“Game reps are obviously the most important piece to it all,” Ott said following Phoenix’s 119-105 loss to Houston on Tuesday night. “Thankfully Dillon and Jalen have played together, and at times, two of the three have played together. I think that’s the unique challenge, all three of them out there at the same time. But we’ve talked about it, we’ve practiced as much as we can practice. We always try to keep those guys [together] just to get the extra reps together. Continue to look at it and we gotta speed it up.”
