Jordan Ott's coaching shows how Suns failed during Kevin Durant era
Former Phoenix Suns teammates Devin Booker and Kevin Durant never achieved playoff success together. | Christian Petersen/GettyImagesPhoenix Suns fans didn’t get an opportunity to see Kevin Durant return to the Valley after a blockbuster trade sending him to the Houston Rockets this past summer.
KD missed the Nov. 24 game against the Suns due to a personal family matter. The next opportunity for Suns fans to welcome Durant back won’t be until April 7 at Mortgage Matchup Center.
