The Phoenix Suns, along with other teams in the Pacific Division, will be direct recipients of one less team being as competitive as they can be, with news of the NBA’s reprimanding of the Los Angeles Clippers, Steve Ballmer, and Kawhi Leonard.

In a division that, for the most part, has been fairly competitive with each other in head-to-head matchups as well as jousting for position in the standings come end of season, this news will likely weigh heavily on the Clippers, as they set sail to navigate the many challenges posed by the league to them.

How much does it all pertain to the Suns? How do the Suns, in specific, benefit from this? How does it all project going forward regarding the Pacific Division, standings, etc.?

Espo and Stephen PridGeon-Garner are back with a Wednesday episode of PHNX Suns, diving into that, plus much, much more!
