Jamal Crawford Scores 16 Points Off Bench
Phoenix Suns guard Jamal Crawford scored 16 points on 7-for-12 shooting in Wednesday's loss to the Chicago Bulls.

Though he was just 1-for-8 from three, he managed to add some value in other ways, finishing with six assists and three steals. The Suns take on the Bucks on Friday, a tough matchup on paper against […]
Isaiah Canaan Will Start on Wednesday
Phoenix Suns guard Isaiah Canaan will draw the start at point guard for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls.

Devin Booker Scores 37 Against 76ers
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker got the start at point guard on Monday night, putting up eight assists to go along with 37 points on 13-for-28 shooting. He also grabbed three boards.

Isaiah Canaan Logs Just 24 Minutes

Phoenix Suns forward Trevor Ariza (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
