Phoenix Suns Struggle with Three-Point Shooting, Look to Improve Against Hornets
The Phoenix Suns struggled with their three-point shooting, only making 8 of 33 attempts at Spectrum Center in Charlotte. While they managed a respectable 27/11 assist-to-turnover ratio, their rebounding was subpar and they allowed too many easy baskets to the Hornets. Despite facing fatigue on the second night of a back-to-back, the Suns have the potential to improve upon their performance. Their defense, which held the Hornets to under 40 percent shooting, was a bright spot. With a stronger offensive showing at home, the Suns are poised to secure a victory and cover the spread.
