“Final Showdown Looms: Suns Favored as Timberwolves’ Towns and Edwards Remain Sidelined or Questionable”
April 14th, 2024 – Tomorrow marks the conclusion of the NBA regular season, where outcomes will determine the matchups for the play-in tournament.
Today, veteran sports journalist Baoren Jun commented on Twitter: “The Suns pose the biggest variable as potential opponents for the Lakers in the play-in tournament. I know the Suns have been criticized, but they still have stars. With Booker and Durant at their peak, regardless of any weaknesses in their lineup or compatibility among the stars, if just one player has a breakout performance, the game could be completely different. The outcome of a single game is highly contingent, and stars are the biggest variable.”
Currently, the Suns are seventh in the Western Conference, the Lakers are eighth, the Kings are ninth, and the Warriors are tenth.
