To celebrate the unveiling of the schedule, a few Suns players visited an adoption center and revealed that the team would sponsor adoption fees for 30 dogs — in honor of the 30 teams in the league. In collaboration with the Arizona Humane Society, the players personally delivered the sogs to the adopting families.
