Center of the Sun: Suns still under .500 after Week Two

Phoenix Suns vs Sacramento Kings L (110-107) Full Recap

Phoenix Suns vs Cleveland Cavaliers W (101-92) Full Recap

Everyone knows that the Suns’ three-point shooting has been bad so far this season (31.0%, 27th) and their three-point defense has also been bad as opponents have collectively connected on 40.0% (28th) of their attempts from beyond the arc. Also, whether it’s through instructions from Monty or just plain gun-shyness, they’ve also begun to attempt less threes per game... while their opponents shoot more.

In their first two games against Denver and LAL, the Suns attempted 37 and 32 threes (respectively) and in both of those games both opponents attempted only 2 more threes than the Suns.
