Phoenix Suns Fall to Bottom Half of NBA Power Rankings

The Phoenix Suns can’t catch a break.

The team has lost six consecutive games and are without a good chunk of their starting lineup due to injuries. They’re below .500 for the first time all season and have yet to land a trade for Jae Crowder.

Things are gloomy around the Suns at the moment, and that’s reflected in power rankings across the league:

“The Suns have shown everybody just how valuable Devin Booker is. This latest stretch, in which they’ve free-fallen down the standings, is all because Booker hurt his groin. The Suns are 4-14 in their last 18 games. They ‘re 2-10 when Booker doesn’t play this season, and that doesn’t even include the Christmas game when he played four minutes and left with a groin injury. The Suns could have hit the over if Booker hadn’t gotten hurt . But they have pretty much no chance now unless Chris Paul turns back the clock.”
