The Phoenix Suns celebrated their first playoff series win together on Thursday night, but almost immediately began preparing for the Denver Nuggets in round two.
“By the time I was on the plane I was already watching Denver for the next series,” head coach Monty Williams said on Saturday to the media.
Williams and the players are excited about the uprising of casual fans around the valley — Mikal Bridges says it’s great to be recognized by name these days rather than just pointed to because of his height — but they have not had time to get out into the community yet to really soak it up.
