As the Suns add their second returning veteran to the roster, you have to question why these 30+-year-old players are returning to a team who finished second-last in the NBA a season ago. Especially, when Barbosa played for a team who won the 2015 NBA Finals and then won a record-setting 73 games in 2016.
The question, why did Barbosa return? Seems fit. Yes, Phoenix is where a good chunk of his career took place. He did have a lot of success as a Sun. Which is why he’s most likely returning.
Barbosa has done everything he needs to in the NBA.
