The 2014-15 Phoenix Suns season was marked by notable roster changes and moderate success. The team finished with a 39-43 record, missing the playoffs for the fifth consecutive year. Despite high hopes following a promising 2013-14 season, the Suns were unable to capitalize and move forward in the competitive Western Conference.
Under the guidance of head coach Jeff Hornacek, the Suns featured a deep backcourt, spearheaded by Eric Bledsoe, who averaged 17.0 points, 6.1 assists, and 5.2 rebounds per game. The addition of Isaiah Thomas provided scoring off the bench, while Goran Dragić continued his solid performance. However, the crowded backcourt eventually led to chemistry issues and the mid-season trade of Dragić to the Miami Heat and Thomas to the Boston Celtics.
The Suns’ season was characterized by inconsistency, as they struggled to maintain a strong defensive front, ranking 26th in points allowed per game. Offensively, they showed promise, ranking 8th in points per game, but the lack of defensive cohesion hindered their playoff aspirations. Notably, the Morris twins, Markieff and Marcus, played significant roles, with Markieff averaging 15.3 points and 6.2 rebounds per game.
Despite a promising start, the Suns faltered post-All-Star break, going 10-19. The inability to sustain momentum, coupled with internal disagreements, ultimately defined a season of unfulfilled potential. As the season concluded, the Suns looked to rebuild around their remaining core, aiming to reestablish themselves as playoff contenders in subsequent years.
- Regular Season Record: 39-43
- Playoff Result: Did not make playoffs
