Halfway through the season, with the team in turmoil and the Phoenix Suns being the laughing stock of the league, it would have just been a joke to even mention a solid starter wanting to come here, let alone a star.
However, that was before James Jones was promoted and actually given the full-time title of GM. He’s great with player relations and has so many ties around the league.
That was before the team brought in Jeff Bower in a front office role, who brings experience and some respect to the franchise.
Then the team swapped head coaches.
