We have reached the quietest portion of the NBA's offseason, and if you're a Phoenix Suns fan that means pondering why exactly Khaman Maluach isn't playing competitive basketball in Africa right now. Which was why the official release of the Suns' 2025-26 schedule - alongside every other team in the league - was always going to be met with a lot of interest.
As was rumored to be the case earlier this week, the Suns will begin their campaign with a home game against the Sacramento Kings. A meeting that usually wouldn't mean much of anything, only it could now be the first occasion Jonathan Kuminga comes to town if he ends up leaving the Golden State Warriors and heading north to the Kings.
