What happened
Phoenix has gone 4-2 in the preseason, and Miles Bridges tweaked his ankle eight minutes into Wednesday’s game against Chicago, which limited a closer look at how he fits with the starters.
The Suns have also opened with ball-security and shooting problems, averaging 29 turnovers per game and shooting 9-of-34 from deep from the Booker-Green-Bridges-Brooks group across the first two exhibitions.
Bridges’ ankle issue and the team’s sloppy preseason play leave Phoenix’s opening rotation and offensive spacing unsettled. The staff may keep experimenting if the turnovers and perimeter shooting do not improve soon.
