Suns Playoff Seed

The season hasn’t started, but the Suns hope to avoid the play-in tournament again this year in the Western Conference.

Phoenix was the No. 6 seed a season ago.

Last Time the Suns Made the Playoffs

The Suns notched a fourth consecutive postseason berth last year. As the No. 6 seed, they were swept by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the opening round.

Phoenix reached the NBA Finals in 2020-21. The Suns haven’t won a title in franchise history, dating back to 1968-69.
