Phoenix Suns backup, or possibly starting, point guard spot is up for grabs

Whether Ricky Rubio plays his usual starting point guard spot when the Phoenix Suns resume play is still unknown, but either way the Suns still need one of their slew of backups to step up and take his place as the primary guy behind Ricky.

“You want somebody grab a hold of that backup point guard spot,” Suns head coach Monty Williams said on Saturday during media availability. “It’s mine and nobody’s taking it and I should be starting. That’s what you want from a backup point guard.”

Since flying to Orlando to be a part of a self-contained “bubble” of NBA teams for an 8-game restart and then full playoffs, the Phoenix Suns have not had to release a game-day active roster.
