The Suns have two remaining games on their four game home stand.

They play the Grizzlies on Monday and the Thunder again on Wednesday.

Grizzlies are 19-14 but have lost their last three games. They play at the Kings on Sunday and will play the Suns on the second night of back-to-back games.

Suns are 26-6 and will be looking to start a new winning streak.

The game will be televised on Bally Sports Arizona.

Start time is scheduled for 7 p.m. Arizona time.

The Grizzlies are signing two players to 10-day hardship contracts: Tyrell Terry and Shaq Buchanan.

I thought Tyrell Terry, a point guard out of the 2020 draft, had a lot of upside.

Jae Crowder and Elfrid Payton have entered health and safety protocols. So has Dillon Brooks.

It will be interesting to see what type of 10-day players the Suns bring in.

Will they be merely replacement players or perhaps someone they might have an interest in looking at for the future.

This is when having a roster spot could pay off.

I'm thinking if the Suns do a trade they might create an additional open roster spot. A 10-day contract would allow them to preview a player.

I still like Kyle Alexander from summer league but I'm not sure where he went.

I wish the Suns could have signed Tyrell Terry before he went elsewhere.

I haven't been to the arena in years. Would someone please tell me what the parking situation is and how I should go about it? I'll be coming southbound on the 51.

I'd consider driving to a park and ride for the lightrail. It's free with same day Suns tickets and drops off right in front of the arena. There is one at 38th Street and Washington. Won't need to pay downtown or deal with much arena traffic. There's another on Central and Camelback. Those are the only Phoenix lots I know. There are others but you'd need to Google it.

Great tip @Hoop Head. That's what I did to go watch the Cards in Denver.

Thanks man!

Go Suns!

PS.. My wife is sad, Crowder is her boy and he's not playing.

Yeah, every game I’ve gone to this year we have taken the light rail. Consider leaving a little early and grabing some food or a drink at one of the restaurants along central and take the train from there.

The light rail schedule on valleymetro.org is pretty accurate too, they're usually no more than 2 minutes early or late of their listed time.

One more tip, if you're going to an event downtown then you do not need to purchase a light rail ticket, events via light rail are free! If you're wearing Suns gear they don't even bother to ask.
