30. Phoenix Suns (18-41)

A couple weeks ago, it was reported that the Phoenix Suns were going to be extremely aggressive during the summer during free agency. They plan on targeting a big name in an attempt to shift this squad to win-now mode.

I don’t know why, but I find that really interesting. Maybe it was a play to the fans, who will be faced with a decision to either renew or buy season tickets for next season, but there’s just something about the worst team in the NBA (record-wise) telling reporters that they’re ready to win.

I mean, maybe they do land LeBron James and strike a sign-and-trade for Paul George. Maybe the joke is on me.

I wouldn’t bet on it, though.
