Hard as it might be to remember, there was a time when the Phoenix Suns viewed owner Mat Ishbia as their savior. Ishbia on the other hand attempted the quick-fix trades of Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, with neither on the roster as they enter the 2025-26 season. Nestled in amongst that piece was this sentence by Zach Kram, and it perfectly sums up the Ishbia experience to this point. Minority owners of the Phoenix Suns and Mercury have filed a lawsuit against controlling owner Mat Ishbia and the teams' holding company. Guys like Mikal Bridges, Deandre Ayton, Cameron Johnson and Chris Paul, who all later made way for Durant, Beal and... gulp, Jusuf Nurkic.
