As far as aggression this summer in upgrading the roster, Mat Ishbia said the Suns will still take calls but his "massive lean" is in favor of continuity and player development. He likes this team and is "not going to do anything silly to mess that up."

Mat Ishbia said continuity and player development are the two main bullet points for the Suns going into next season. He described them as a "young ascending team" as opposed to some of the teams Phoenix had previously.

Mat Ishbia said he is excited about the continuity the Suns will have in the future, not only with the front office and coaching staff but with the players as well.

Mat Ishbia called this past season a successful first step and stepping stone to where the Suns want to get to. Reiterated it's not just about that and the end goal is still getting to the top.

"Devin Booker is going to be here, and he's going to lead us to championship here in Phoenix. That's what he's going to do. I'll ride into a fire with Devin Booker, and I will do it proudly. Devin Booker is not getting traded."Mat Ishbia on the national media storylines

Mat Ishbia on Dillon Brooks: "He's a leader. He cares. I love him and I love having him here ... I think the fans love him here and have really embraced him. When he speaks, people listen because he puts in the work."

Mat Ishbia says the Suns will focus heavily on continuity this summer and lean on their new identity."We're not going to do anything silly to mess that up ... this was the foundational first year."

When it comes to the offensive balance between Devin Booker, Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green, Brian Gregory "100%" believes they can figure it out with more time next year. Said all 3 will get better this year and have the ability to be "self-aware and self-critical."
