What happened
Phoenix’s early small-ball looks have struggled through three games, and Jordan Ott’s starting group has posted a poor net rating in 37 shared minutes.
The article says the Suns are using those lineups because Mark Williams and Oso Ighodaro are injured, while one smaller five-man unit has actually been productive.
