The Phoenix Suns’ future remains uncertain after a season filled with drama and unmet expectations.
Despite high hopes for Mike Budenholzer to maximize the talents of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal, the results have fallen short. Now, whispers are growing about his job security, making him the third coach in three years potentially on the hot seat.
NBA insider Marc Stein highlighted concerns about Budenholzer’s leadership, including reports that he told Booker to be less vocal—a move that reportedly shocked the star guard. The Suns’ locker room has been described as “toxic,” and speculation is mounting about possible roster shake-ups.
With 20 games left, Suns owner Mat Ishbia must decide if another coaching change is the answer.
