Mike Budenholzer Fired as Phoenix Suns Coach
Mike Budenholzer has been fired as the head coach of the Phoenix Suns after just one season, following the team’s failure to make the postseason with a 36-46 record. Despite an early 8-1 start to the season, injuries and inconsistent lineups hindered the team’s performance, leading to a disappointing finish and the end of a four-season playoff streak. Budenholzer’s departure signals potential roster changes for a team that has underachieved in recent years, with owner Mat Ishbia seeking improvement after a series of unsuccessful decisions since taking over in February 2023.
