The Phoenix Suns entered the NBA season as one of the most talked about teams in the league.
That was due to their blockbuster trade to acquire Bradley Beal from the Washington Wizards.
Beal is an All-Star caliber player who has battled numerous injuries throughout his career and that has been no different this year.
Beal has only played in 10 games this season and is averaging a measly 16.1 points per game.
He is one of the reasons why the Suns have struggled so far this season as Phoenix has a record of 18-16 and is ninth in the Western Conference.
Former NBA player Lou Williams believes it is time for the Suns to show improvement.
“That team is trending below expectations right now. I wouldn’t say time is running out, but it’s time to go,” Williams said.

The Suns’ big 3 of Beal, Devin Booker, and Kevin Durant have only played four games together this season.
While each of those three players has missed time, they need to be on the floor together to reach their full potential
The Western Conference is as strong as it has ever been and there are a few teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder who are exceeding expectations.
Due to their cap restrictions and lack of assets, the Suns are in a difficult situation to make any significant moves at the trade deadline.
