The Los Angeles Lakers, Clippers, Brooklyn Nets and even the Milwaukee Bucks are the teams that started the season as one of the favorites for the title, but as the weeks go by in 2021, there are franchises that surprised everyone by breaking expectations, such as the Phoenix Suns, who without the NBA reveal.
They are second place in the Western Conference.
The only ones surpassing them is the other revelation team of the 2020 season, the Utah Jazz. But outside of them, the Suns are ahead of the Lakers, Clippers, Trailblazers, Dallas Mavericks and even Stephen Curry’s Golden State Warriors.
There is still a long way to go until the end of the season and anything can happen, but over the weeks, those from Phoenix have shown they have the necessary talent to compete, to the extent that they are part of the top positions in the ranking of the best teams actually.

They have gone from worse to better.
The Phoenix Suns began the season 8-8, with key players affected by injuries, primarily Dario Saric. However, the team led by Chris Paul and Devin Booker has inspired memories that make fans regain hope, as the drought appears to be ending.
Most Suns fans believed the team was on the right track, but not many predicted 24-11 at this point. With Chris Paul earning every bit of his All-Star status and as the Lakers grapple with injuries and the Clippers struggle, the Suns have reached second place in the West. They are on a four game win streak and are winners of eight of their last 10 games.

It cannot be overstated how good this team has been.
The numbers don’t lie. ORthey rank second in field goal percentage (50.5%), fifth in 3-point percentage (40.3%) and third in free throw percentage (84.3%) during the last five weeks. And their only two losses in their last 15 games came in games in which they led by 24 and 17 points. With that it is clear that the Phoenix Suns are the revelation of the NBA, how far will they go?
