If you conducted a poll on what the Phoenix Suns' record would be through the first quarter of the season, odds are that every non-Suns fan wouldn't have guessed the team would be 14-10, seventh in the West. They've strung together wins on the court (and their biggest one could come tonight), but the real win came in an off-court move the team made over the summer.
Phoenix fired Mike Budenholzer after the team failed to make it to the play-in tournament last season. Rather than hire another veteran head coach, the Suns sought a first-time head coach.
