Time: 1:30 pm AZ (12:30 pm PT/3:30 pm ET)
Place: Capital One Arena, Washington, DC
TV: AZ Family 3TV/NBATV

It's the end of the road for the Suns. They need this one to end up above 0.500 on their 7 game road trip. For the first time, Bradley Beal is returning to play his career-long team until he joined the Suns last summer. Unfortunately, the masked man has struggled to shoot well since breaking his nose. He should receive a warm welcome from the DC fans.

I think we will put on an absolute show and be up by 30+ during the third before ultimately losing on an unlikely Jordan Poole jumper.

The Suns are a west coast team and they tend to start out slowly in these early starts. I hope they don’t take too long to warm up. Beal at his long time home for the first time as a Sun. He’s been off with that mask so far. Maybe a couple more days of rest and being home will reignite his shooting touch and confidence.

Beal's putting up 50 today.

I'd venture to guess that, mask or no mask, Beal will give it his all today and will have a big game. I hope we see Bol Bol get a few minutes, too.

Many times players returning to their former arena struggle in part due to not being able to follow their usual pregame routine.

Sam Mitchell doing the "back in my day" thing on the NBATV pregame show is dumb.

Jordan Poole is the most unintentionally funny player in the NBA.

Up 10 but the Suns cannot stop anything in the paint. Barf.


Bet a PG helps with that... 🤐

Doesn’t seem like either team has much interest in playing defense…luckily we have better offensive players.

3 first quarter fouls for Booker, 2 against a guy who's barely hanging on in the league.

Getting in foul trouble so Beal can run the show in his homecoming.
