NBA: Predicting Every Team’s Win Total For 2016-17
Phoenix Suns
Record Prediction: 31-51
There are a lot of ifs, ands and buts for this Phoenix Suns team. And many of them revolve around the health of Eric Bledsoe. There’s no question that this team is head and shoulders better when he’s healthy.
However, he’s missed at least half the season in two of his first three years with the Suns. Odds are that he’ll at least miss some time this season, unfortunately.
I could see the Suns making a run to the playoffs as much as I could see them winning only 30 games this season. I think there’s a better chance they win 30, though.
