While on a podcast with Ashley Nicole Moss, the ex-Denver Broncos WR proclaimed that a team like the Suns will do better even if they don’t have a deep bench. He stated that a deep bench isn’t very necessary for a win. However, Ashley staunchly refuted this but Marshall was adamant.

 

He was proven horribly wrong just days after, when the Nuggets, who have a good depth chart, went on to beat the Suns in their second game of the playoff series. Even though players like Durant and Booker are putting in the work, the deeper bench of the Nuggets is able to beat them.
