I never had a pro team to root for in Boise, Idaho. My family always cheered for my mom’s hometown team, the @trailblazers. I’m so happy my kiddos have Arizona teams they can claim as their own!

@Lakers fans are so bitter about Phoenix people being happy for the @Suns, I have not heard anyone talk more about the @Suns these past few weeks than Californians, are sure y’all ain’t the ones obsessed?

“I’ve seen (Devin Booker’s) work. I’ve seen the passion. I’ve seen his family and how, not just him, they want it. They love Phoenix. They don’t want to go anywhere. … To see him in this position is gratifying.”

Phoenix Suns head coach
“Ayton says Suns fans provide motivation for this team. ‘Give them something to talk about and have a little step when they walk.’”
