Jordan Ott brutally explains why Suns rookies are barely playing

The Phoenix Suns have started the NBA season 1-4 - but if not for some questionable decisions late in a couple of games - they could be 3-2. That's the cruel nature of being a rebuilding team, so often the bounces of the ball don't go your way. To try and combat this fact head coach Jordan Ott has been leaning more heavily than expected on his veterans to start the season.

This despite having three rookies on their roster, yet it is familiar names like Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale who have been called upon each night.
