The semifinal round of the NBA Playoffs have not been kind to the Phoenix Suns so far. Despite Devin Bookers best effort, the Suns are down 0-2 in the series to Nikola Jokic and the Nuggs. With Game 3 happening tonight, what do the Suns need to do to ensure a win and avoid falling further behind? Can Kevin Durant turn up the heat? After much speculation the Arizona Cardinals ended up NOT trading DeAndre Hopkins during the NFL Draft. Now Hopkins himself has come forward saying he never wanted to leave, so what is the real story? Brandon Pfaadt made his debut for the Arizona Diamondbacks and it was just alright. What can we learn from his first start? The NHL Draft lottery is almost here and are the Arizona Coyotes doomed to draw the third overall pick yet again?
