The Phoenix Suns were touted as arguably the best team in the Western Conference following their acquisition of Bradley Beal in a blockbuster trade with the Washington Wizards.
Bradley Beal’s arrival helped the Suns in creating a Big 3 of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal ahead of the 2023-24 NBA season.
Unfortunately, Beal has yet to truly show his impact on the Suns as the 3x NBA All-Star has played just three games in the regular season.
Despite Beal’s extended absence due to a back injury, his teammate, Devin Booker, believes that once he is back, it will change things for the Suns via Duane Rankin on Twitter.
“One person can change everything, the whole landscape,” Booker said of Beal.

There is no doubt that Bradley Beal is one of the most talented players in the NBA when he is healthy.
He even averaged more than 30.0 points per game in back-to-back seasons.
During the three games that he played for the Suns this season, he has averaged 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game.
Considering Beal will essentially be the third scoring option behind Durant and Booker on the team, fans shouldn’t expect big numbers from the former Wizards star.
Either way, the Suns are in desperate need of his return, as they are currently the seventh seed in the Western Conference with a 12-10 record.
Moreover, they are on a two-game losing streak right now.
Sure, the Suns are 6-4 in their last 10 games, but they need to string together a winning streak if they want to have a shot at clinching a permanent berth in the 2024 playoffs.
