Mullett Arena, which seats 5,000 people, is home to Arizona State hockey, which would overlap with the G League season, and was the temporary home of the Arizona Coyotes before they were relocated to Utah.
“We are excited for Mullett Arena to be the home of the Valley Suns,” said General Manager of Mullett Arena Amber Musgrave. “We are dedicated to creating memorable experiences for the community and look forward to extending the ‘Mullett Magic’ beyond our Sun Devil Athletic events, concerts, comedy and family shows to now include the Valley Suns.”
Phoenix previously owned a G League team, the Northern Arizona Suns, which was sold ultimately to the Detroit Pistons in 2020. The Northern Arizona Suns used to play in Prescott.
The Suns were the only team in the NBA to not have a G League affiliate. The move expands the G League to 31 teams (one is not affiliated with an NBA franchise and the G League Ignite was disbanded).’
