The Phoenix Suns have exceeded many preseason projections 16 games into the season, despite a tough opening schedule. Much of their success can be credited to the ball movement, playmaking and unselfishness of the team.
The Suns have assisted on 67.8 percent of their made field goals this season, ranking first in the NBA. Despite being without their starting point guard in Ricky Rubio for five games and their rookie point guard in Ty Jerome for all 16 games, the team has kept the ball moving and are among the league’s best at sharing the rock.
“It's a core value for us,” Head Coach Monty Williams said.
