The Phoenix Suns are one of the most exciting young teams, but they still need to continue to rebuild. Here’s how they should do it

About a week into the 2016-17 NBA season, there were three winless teams in the league.

The Dallas Mavericks, who I don’t think anyone saw as being a bottom dweller; the New Orleans Anthony Davis’ and the Phoenix Suns.

With the Mavs getting older and having a top-2 PF to ever play the game in Dirk Nowitzki, they’re not panicking this year. Rick Carlisle has proved he will have them fighting for a playoff spot at the end of the year. The Pelicans are 20 years away from being a year away, which leaves us with a big question mark in Phoenix.

Is this a rebuilding year? Are we paying too much for our key guys that are always injured? Do the Suns have enough prospects to develop into becoming a future contender in the west? I’m about to put on my GM pants and change the direction of the Phoenix Suns.
