Back to the Future Day may not be for another three weeks on October 21 but the Suns figured out a way to time travel without the assistance of a DeLorean or a crazy white-haired doctor. Although a white-haired athletic trainer was in attendance.
About 15 minutes prior to tip of the annual Suns intra-squad scrimmage on Saturday night, Coach Jeff Hornacek exited the locker room and went to take the floor with his team. It’s a moment that happens before every game but this time was special. That’s because he was exiting from a locker room he called home for the first six years of his playing career and he was wearing the warmups he last wore at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in the early 1990s.
