Tyler Johnson is the Suns backup point guard.

It's a layup drill for the kings

No interior players players for Suns to challenge shots. Relying on Baynes and Ayton may be asking too much. Teams have figured out the Suns.

If ayton can come back with something to prove the rest of the season, I think it could hold up just fine.. but he has to have high level intensity on the defensive end that he didn't have last year.

Need a wide left or wide right icon for shots.

Not liking the substitutions. Bench in there too long while Oubre and Booker are sitting.

Suns are shooting 26% from the field. Poor Al McCoy was happy to start the game but after this turd of a first half he's just waiting for it to be over like the rest of us.

Ayton will certainly help Suns. However, other teams have a roster of big men they can throw at them.

For example even though Bagley is out, the Kings still have Bjelica, Holmes, Swanigan, Giles and Dedmon. That's a lot of size.

And why I've said the biggest need for this team is a 4. When Dario and Frank are missing shots they become largely useless.

That Suns defense early in the season was an illusion.

Halftime:

Kings 62 - Suns 45

Suns appear to be a team that has lost their confidence.

Most will call oubre smooth. His game is way too soft for my taste. Like melo back in his day....no grit to his game at all. Just cares about his offense.. imo at least.

I don't think so. They can be a good defensive team (well at least mediocre). Injuries and a certain suspension have hurt them

Some of the players seem to let what happens on the offensive end affect them on defense
