Perkins stated that the Suns will be front contenders to finish in the top five teams and it won’t be a surprise if they qualify for the Western conference finals in the next season.
Perkins added, “Chris Paul going paired with Devin Booker, one of the best scorers in today’s game, is going to be serious. The Phoenix Suns are a threat in the West. They’re going to be a top five team … and don’t be surprised if they make it to the Western Conference Finals.”
The next season of the NBA will begin from December 22.
