Phoenix Suns 2025-26 NBA Betting Lines
The Phoenix Suns have never been the same since blowing a 2-0 lead in the 2021 NBA Finals to the Milwaukee Bucks, losing the final four games of the series. At the onset of the 2024-25 season, there was excitement with the arrival of Mike Budenholzer as head coach of the Phoenix Suns. Budenholzer had great success with the Milwaukee Bucks, which included an NBA championship, and it was expected that he would put the Suns into the NBA Playoffs. Instead, Phoenix went home for the summer after a disappointing regular season that cost Budenholzer his job. Phoenix will now employ its fourth coach in four years, a move that undermines its credibility. Adding to the credibility gap for the Suns is a lackluster summer that produced little in the way of improvement on the hardwood. Big contracts to big names in recent years served to handcuff the Suns.
NBA Betting Lines
Team Overview
The Phoenix Suns' final regular season record was 36-46 straight up, 42-38 against the spread, and 42-38 over/under the total. Phoenix was 11th in the Western Conference playoff standings, 32 games behind the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Phoenix's NBA metrics were 15th for scoring offense, 11th for field goal percentage, 3rd for 3-point field goal percentage, 2nd for free throw percentage, and 25th for offensive rebounding. On defense, the Suns' metrics were 24th for scoring defense, 21st for field goal percentage permitted, 27th for 3-point field goal percentage allowed, and 16th for defensive rebounding.
Head coach Mike Budenholzer was unable to sell his vision to the players or his bosses in management and was fired after one season. On the bright side, he got a $40 million buyout.

Off-Season Moves for 2025-26
Key additions: Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Khaman Maluach, Mark Williams
Key subtractions: Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, Tyus Jones, Mason Plumlee
The marquee man of the Phoenix Suns, Devin Booker, has become a man alone on an island.
Phoenix reached the 2021 NBA Finals, but the Suns instead pivoted to constructing a superteam pretender, acquiring Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, both of whom left the team this summer. They traded Durant for half of what they spent to get him and paid Beal to leave.
It is a sad state of affairs that is entirely of their own making. They are devoid of most future draft picks and are scheduled to pay both Booker and Beal (who, remember, is no longer on the team) a combined $88.6 million in 2029-30. All that said, they did score Jalen Green and Khaman Maluach — two high-upside young talents — in exchange for Durant, and cutting Beal gave them some flexibility under the second apron. There were certainly a lot worse alternatives to what they accomplished this summer.
Like Milwaukee, Phoenix put a massive amount of dead salary on its books with a buyout for the final two years of Beal's contract. After dealing with Durant, the Suns can't realistically contend. Even making the playoffs will be a stretch in the West. But they have flipped their roster in a younger direction with three 2025 draft picks -- having started the summer with none -- and 23-year-old center Mark Williams, acquired via trade.
Key Players
SG Devin Booker averaged 25.6 points and 7.1 assists per game in 2025. Booker is a 4-time NBA All-Star. Booker was the 13th overall pick of the 2015 NBA Draft out of Kentucky by the Suns. He is a 4-time NBA All-Star.
Head Coach
Jordan Ott is the new rookie head coach of the Suns. He has been an NBA assistant since 2013. He spent the past two seasons as an assistant with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Phoenix Suns History
The Valley of the Sun received an NBA franchise in 1968, becoming the first major sports franchise in Arizona. The Phoenix Suns have had a star-crossed history over the last five decades, failing to win a title but putting together some memorable teams.
Phoenix only made the playoffs once in its first seven years. However, the 1976 Phoenix Suns made it to the NBA Finals despite going 42-40 in the regular season. Paul Westphal and Alvan Adams poured in the points, while Gar Heard was a real difference-maker on the court. The team missed the playoffs the next season, but the Suns made the postseason for eight straight years after that point, reaching the Western Conference Finals on two occasions.
They were a competitive team throughout the 1990s, too, making it to the postseason in 13 straight seasons from 1989 to 2001. Phoenix dealt Jeff Hornacek and two role players to the Philadelphia 76ers for Charles Barkley, and the Suns went on to make just their second NBA Finals appearance. Dan Majerle, Kevin Johnson, and Barkley did their best to take down the Chicago Bulls, but they fell in six games.
In his four years as head coach of the Phoenix Suns, Mike D’Antoni helped modernize basketball. D’Antoni stressed an up-tempo pace with a ton of shots, and he found the perfect player to run the offense in two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash. These teams were loaded with talent as Shawn Marion, Joe Johnson, and Amar’e Stoudemire joined Nash, but they could never get past the San Antonio Spurs.
