The Phoenix Suns may not be out of the Western Conference race just yet. With Dillon Brooks and Mark Williams nearing a return possibly sooner than thought, Phoenix suddenly has a real opportunity to make a late push and climb the standings before the playoffs. Especially with the top teams struggling.

In this episode of Southwest Bias, Espo breaks down why the Suns could still shock the NBA one more time if their roster gets back to full strength. Injuries and inconsistency have made this season a roller coaster, but if Phoenix gets its core rotation back on the floor, the Western Conference picture could change quickly.

We dive into:

• Why the Suns still have a realistic path to move up in the West
• How the return of key starters could change the team’s momentum
• What this means for Devin Booker and the Suns’ offensive ceiling
• Why the Western Conference standings may be tighter than they appear

If the Suns get healthy at the right time, Phoenix could become one of the most dangerous teams in the conference heading toward the playoffs.
