Between Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, and Chris Paul, the Suns have made 28 combined All Star appearances.
And when you add on Deandre Ayton, who has 10 or more rebounds along with 18 points per game this season, Phoenix just became a serious title contender.
Currently the Suns are in 5th in the Western Conference standings with a 30-26 record.
