Against the Los Angeles Clippers, Footprint Center, the Suns’ home arena, recorded its 100th consecutive sellout crowd.

The last time the Suns did not have a sellout crowd dates all the way back to December 16th, 2021. This was a matchup against the Washington Wizards where the Suns improved to 23-5 with a 20-point win.

Ironically, Bradley Beal, now with the Suns, scored 26 points for the Wizards in this game. 

Here is how Phoenix’s starting lineup looked the last time they played with a few empty seats in the crowd at home.

  • Mikal Bridges
  • Landry Shamet
  • Chris Paul
  • Deandre Ayton
  • Jae Crowder

The current 100-game streak that the Suns are on is the third longest in franchise history. If they want to beat the record, they will have to surpass the 390-game streak that occurred from 1990-1999.

This season, there is no doubt that Footprint Center is one of the loudest arenas in the NBA. Not necessarily by crowd reactions, but more from the music that has led coaches such as Steve Kerr to refer to the Suns’ home as a ‘South Beach club.’
