The Suns are sixth from the bottom? The predicted record is 30.5 wins and 26 in the first round. Booker Green scores with peace of mind?

On the evening of July 30, NBA reporter Evan Steeley listed the five teams with the worst record predictions: Jazz 18.5 wins, Wizards 21.5 wins, Nets 21.5 wins, Hornets 25.5 wins, and Suns 30.5 wins.

The Suns' first round swap rights in 2026 are currently in the Wizards. In 2023, the Suns used this first round swap rights to exchange for three second round picks from the Magic. Later, the Magic sent this first round swap rights to the Wizards in a series of transactions. On July 31, ESPN's strength list was 25, which is the sixth from the bottom in the league. They traded Dillon, Jaylen Green, Mark Williams, claimed Goodwin, and signed Jared Butler. At the same time, they also sent Bill, Durant, Jones, Martin, Plumley and others away. The Suns' immediate combat power must have declined significantly, but their offseason operation was to save money. After sacking Bill, they put them under the second rich line, and reduced the luxury tax and heavy penalty of $210 million. Although the Suns' first round pick in 2026 is in the hands of the Wizards, the Suns can still choose to play badly next season, because the Wizards predicted that the record is 21.5 wins worse than the Suns, and the Wizards ranked 29th in the ESPN strength list, so this swap right does not have much effect on the Wizards.

The Suns are still selling O'Neal Jr. and Allen. They want to trade for Warriors forward Jonathan Cumingga. It is obvious that the main theme of the Suns' future is - young. Dunn, Booker, Green, Marway, Fleming, Maruach, Iguodaro, Gillespie and others will support the Suns' future.

Book and Green also have no record pressure in the new season. These two people can enjoy data with peace of mind. Jaylen Green has determined to play against the Suns to play with Booker at the first position. Without record pressure, it should be fine for Booker to average 28+ per game, and Green is also promising to average 25+5+5.
