This loss was the Suns’ 11th defeat in their last 14 games. Their record is now 28 wins and 33 losses. They are four games behind the Dallas Mavericks, who hold the last play-in spot in the Western Conference. There are only 21 games left in the season, and the Suns need to win a lot of them to have a chance to make the playoffs.

At the beginning of the season, everyone thought the Suns would be one of the best teams. They had strong players like Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal. Many people believed they could win the championship. The team started well, winning eight of their first nine games. But since November, they have struggled, winning only 20 games and losing 31. Injuries made things harder, but on Sunday, all their players were available, and they still lost badly.

Coach Mike Budenholzer knows the team is in trouble. He said they need to start winning now. He understands the situation is not good, but he believes they must fight to change it. The Suns do not have much time left. If they do not improve soon, their season will end in disappointment.
