The Suns were unexpectedly ousted by the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference Semifinals. They were eliminated in embarrassing fashion, losing 123-90 in Game 7 of the series in front of their home crowd.
It was the beginning of an eventful offseason for the Suns. As they dealt with a rollercoaster of emotions following the loss, many speculated that the Suns would move on from big man Deandre Ayton. The team decided to re-sign the former first-overall pick after matching the Indiana Pacers' four-year, $133 million offer sheet.

I have never been to a media day this had the absolute absence of enthusiasm than was today here in Phoenix. I didn't think it was going to be doing handsprings but I kind of thought there might be like, All right, Sarver's in the past. Let's focus on the future, but that was absolutely not the case."
"I could call it that it was like a funeral, but that implies that they're sad that Robert server is gone.

I don't necessarily think that would be 100% classified. So, let me pivot to saying it felt like a dentist's waiting room and the players going up to the podium looked like they were about to have teeth pulled."

Only time will tell if the locker room can put the distractions behind them this season. The Suns still have an impressive core of Chris Paul, Devin Booker, Mikal Bridges and Deandre Ayton to lead the charge.
