The Suns have once again seen another season of basketball flushed down the toilet of mediocrity, posting the worst record in the NBA so far this season. This terrible performance does have a silver lining as the Suns will have a 14% chance to earn the first overall pick in this year’s draft and are guaranteed to have a top five pick as long as they stay a bottom three team.
Phoenix has been playing in the lottery since 2011 and have gotten a lot of talented pieces through it but this offseason could present them with an opportunity to turn the franchise around and it all starts with the draft.
