Thus, Brunson’s tweet caused a lot of discussion on Twitter.
Phoenix Suns going all in to get the championship
Kevin Durant may be a big catch for Phoenix Suns if they want to win the title. His partnership with Devin Booker is expected to be a high scoring one. The 4 players in Durant, Booker, Paul, and Ayton are individually great players capable of carrying a team on their shoulders. Thus, the suns can afford one or two of these players to have an off day without affecting the title campaign too much.
