Mat Ishbia has lots of good traits for an NBA owner, including deep pockets and a huge desire to win. Patience doesn’t appear to be his strong suit.
Mat Ishbia has lots of good traits for an NBA owner, including deep pockets and a huge desire to win.The Phoenix Suns — outside of three-time All-Star Devin Booker — are nearly unrecognizable just eight months after Ishbia bought the team for roughly $4 billion from embattled owner Robert Sarver. In fact, Booker is the final player remaining from the franchise's run to the 2021 Finals, less than three years ago.
Vogel values continuity, and realizes the Suns don't have a lot of it after all the recent moves, but said that's not the only way to build a winner. The owner praised Ayton on Monday, saying he expected the center to go to Portland, “put up some great numbers and really impress a lot of people.” Beal spent most of his NBA career on mediocre teams during an 11-year stint with the Washington Wizards before coming to desert and said he's pleased to be on a team that has legitimate title aspirations.
That's not necessarily a bad thing. Booker is a willing passer and averaged 5.5 assists per game last season, but for a guy who is also expected to score 25-30 points a night, it's a heavy workload.
