Take That For Data: Assessing how to build around Suns Big 3

The Phoenix Suns’ season is over, but it’s time to reassess what went wrong with a new episode of Take That For Data! On the latest pod, Gerald Bourguet and Stephen Pridgeon-Garner dive into what went wrong during that first-round sweep against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the state of the starting lineup, and how to build around the Suns Big 3 of Devin Booker, Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal.

Should Grayson Allen continue to get the start next season? Or will Royce O’Neale — who likely will be (and absolutely should be) re-signed this summer — get the nod? Can the Suns upgrade their center rotation? What other needs does Phoenix have on the wing and in the ball-handling department?

This latest episode of Take That For Data attempts to answer all those questions and plenty more! Subscribe to the PHNX Suns Podcast for the latest around the team, and don’t forget to follow the show on social @PHNX_Suns!

Disclaimer: This episode was pre-recorded before the news dropped that Frank Vogel had been fired, but if you’re looking for analysis on that decision or potential candidates to replace him, we already have you covered there too.
