They are the only team remaining whose starting five can all go for 10+ points every night
We can talk about Chris Paul, Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton for days, but they are just three guys on a very talented overall team. The biggest reason why the Suns were one of the most dominant teams during the regular season and why they have continued to find success in the postseason is in large part because of how deep they are as a team, but because of how good their starting five is.
All of the Suns starters in Chris Paul, Devin Booker, Deandre Ayton, Mikal Bridges and Jae Crowder are all averaging 10+ points this postseason and they are a threat to score in double figures in any game on any night.
In fact, they have all scored in double-figures in 5 total games this postseason and have come close to doing it two other times as well! Everybody has a set role on this team and offensively, you never know who is going to be the guy taking the shot because they are all capable of being high-level scorers!
Devin Booker is “the guy” offensively for the Suns, but Chris Paul has been putting together some of his best scoring performances ever in the playoffs, DeAndre Ayton has scored 15+ points in 10 games this postseason, and both Jae Crowder and Mikal Bridges are shooting over 35% from three-point range in these playoffs.
