What exactly are the Phoenix Suns doing?
Nearly a month after firing Mike Budenholzer—an NBA Champion and two-time Coach of the Year—the Suns still don’t have a new head coach. No shortlist. No leaks worth trusting. Just vague rumors, an exhausted fanbase, and a GM with “no timetable.”
In a league driven by speed, clarity, and vision, the Suns’ search feels more like a holding pattern than a pursuit of excellence.
Are they overthinking it, or just lost?
Let’s be honest: this franchise has wasted three seasons of Devin Booker’s prime, mismanaged the Kevin Durant era, and turned a championship window into a revolving door of chaos. Now, with no head coach and no plan in sight, fans are supposed to “trust the process”? We’ve heard that one before.
Whispers inside the league suggest that top candidates are hesitant. Why?
Lack of stability. A front office in flux. And ownership that’s rumored to be more style than substance. The Suns may not just be interviewing coaches—they may be getting interviewed themselves. And the answers aren’t impressive.
Is Phoenix even an attractive destination anymore?
The NBA is watching. Players are watching. And if this search ends with a panic hire—or worse, another recycled name with no chemistry—it won’t just be embarrassing. It’ll be proof that the Suns are squandering one of the most talented rosters in basketball.
Something needs to happen. Fast.
Do you think the Suns are making the right moves, or are they fumbling another chance at greatness?
Drop your thoughts in the comments. The valley deserves better—and it’s time to hold this front office accountable.
