The Phoenix Suns are Abysmal in Late Shot Clock Situations
The Phoenix Suns are among the league’s worst in giving up late shot clock baskets, and among the worst in scoring them.
It feels like every single game the Phoenix Suns give up a last-second buzzer-beater to end a quarter, if not more.
This comes on the heels of a game where the Suns both gave one up to end the half, and missed one at the end of regulation that would have won it.
The problem with quantifying this statistic is that it is more of a feel than anything else, because I don’t watch the end of every quarter of every NBA game. And now that it is in my head, every time it happens it perpetuates the idea in my head the Suns lead the league in this category exponentially.
