+ The Suns had won 4 straight road games priot to Game 3, tying their longest overall road winning streak in the team's playoff history
and the longest in a single season. The only previous time the Suns won 4 straight on the road was Game 5 at Chicago in the 1993
NBA Finals followed by a win at Golden State and 2 wins at Houston to start the 1994 postseason.
+ The Suns face the Clippers in a playoff series for just the 2nd time ever and the first since 2006. In the 2006 Western Conference
Semifinals, the teams alternated wins the whole series with the Suns winning in 7 games.
+ The Suns are making their 10th appearance in the Western Conference Finals and first since 2010; they are now tied with Oklahoma
City/Seattle for the 3rd-most Western Conference Finals appearances behind only the Lakers and Spurs.
VALLEY OOP
+ In Game 2 on June 24, inbounding the ball from the baseline with :00.9 left and trailing 103-102, JAE CROWDER threw the ball over
the rim and DEANDRE AYTON slammed it home to put the Suns ahead with :00.7 to play. The shot was the first game-winner of
Ayton's career and the Suns' first game-winner in the final second of a playoff game since Game 1 of the 2006 Western Conference
Finals when Boris Diaw gave the Suns a 119-118 lead with :00.5 remaining at Dallas.
+ The 'Valley Oop' was reminiscent of another Suns game-winner drawn up by Jay Triano and resulting in a Tyson Chandler dunk from
a Dragan Bender inbound in a win vs. Memphis on Dec. 26, 2017.

DOMIN-AYTON
+ DEANDRE AYTON is shooting 72.3 FG% (99-of-137) through 13 games this postseason. Dating back to 1982-83, as far back as
Stathead has complete data, his FG% is by far the best (min. 75 FGM) of any player through 13 career playoff games as the previous
high was 59.6 FG% by Terry Cummings in 1985-1986. In fact, Ayton's field goal percentage over these first 13 games is the best by
any player over any 13-game playoff stretch since 1983 (min. 75 FGM), via Stathead.
+ Ayton has shot at least 50% on FG in each of his first 13 career playoff games; according to Stathead, he is the only player since
1983 to shoot at least 50% from the field in each of his first 13 career playoff games. Ayton had previously become the only player
since at least 1983 to shoot at least 60% from the field in each of his first 8 career playoff games, according to Stathead.

PHOENIX SUNS 2020-21 REGULAR SEASON NOTES

as general manager and the team then added MONTY WILLIAMS as head coach. Now just two seasons later, the Suns finished with
the 2nd-best record in the NBA at 51-21. This is just the third time since the NBA-ABA Merger that a team jumped from bottom two
to top two in two seasons or less:
BOTTOM TWO TO TOP TWO IN TWO SEASONS OR LESS, SINCE MERGER (1976)

+ The Suns recorded a .708 winning percentage this season after .466 last season; the Suns' +.242 improvement ranked 4th in the
NBA this season (behind Golden State, Atlanta and New York). This marked the second straight season the Suns’ winning percentage
improved by at least .200 points (.232 in 2018-19 to .466 in 2019-20). According to STATS, the Suns became just the 3rd team in NBA
history to have .200+ improvements in winning percentage in consecutive seasons (Miami from 2002-03 to 2004-05, Philadelphia
from 2015-16 to 2017-18).
PACIFIC DIVISION CHAMPIONS
+ The Suns clinched the 2020-21 Pacific Division title on May 14, their 7th division title in franchise history and first in 14 years as the
Suns have won the Pacific Division in 1980-81, 1992-93, 1994-95, 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07 and now 2020-21.
+ The Suns return to the playoffs for the 30th time in team history and first time since reaching the Western Conference Finals in
2010. They return as a top 2 seed in the West by posting the league's 2nd-best record, finishing 1 game back of Utah. This is the
Suns' first time earning a top 2 seed since being No. 2 in the 2007 playoffs after recording the NBA's 2nd-best record in 2006-07.
+ This is the Suns' 7th time being a top 2 seed in the West (No. 1 seed in 1981, 1993, 2005; No. 2 seed in 1995, 2006, 2007, now 2021).
+ The Suns' .708 winning percentage this season is 5th-best in franchise history and 5th time posting a win percentage over .700:

FINDING CONSISTENCY, NBA'S TOP OFFENSE SINCE LATE JANUARY


+ Following a loss to Oklahoma City on Jan. 27, the Suns fell to 8-8 for the season by dropping their season-long third straight.

team's final 56 games they posted a 43-13 (.768) record, the NBA's best record from Jan. 28 onward.
+ Over this stretch from Jan. 28 to the end of the season, the Suns shot at least 50% from the field in 30 of 56 games and ranked 1st in

HISTORIC TWO-YEAR STRETCH FROM THE STRIPE
+ Last season the Suns recorded what was then the highest single-season free throw percentage in NBA history at 83.4%, besting the
previous record set by the 1989-90 Boston Celtics. The Suns shot even better from the free throw line in 2020-21 but ranked 2nd in
the league behind the LA Clippers. Over the past 2 seasons, the Suns have recorded 2 of the 3 best free throw shooting seasons in
NBA history:
HIGHEST SINGLE-SEASON FT% BY TEAM, NBA HISTORY
RANK TEAM SEASON FT%
1 LA Clippers 2020-21 83.9%
2 SUNS 2020-21 83.44%
3 SUNS 2019-20 83.39%
4 Boston 1989-90 83.2%
+ The Suns had 7 games this season shooting 100% from the free throw line, most by any team in a single season in NBA history
(previous mark was 6 times by the 2005-06 Suns and 1990-91 Boston, then matched by the 2020-21 LA Clippers).
WORKING OVERTIME
+ The Suns end the regular season having won 4 straight overtime games since March 28, the team's longest winning streak in
overtime games since winning 4 straight in OT from 2007-2008.
+ The Suns played 7 overtime games this season, t-1st in the NBA (Indiana, San Antonio) and the most the Suns have played in a
season since playing 9 in 2010-11. The Suns went 4-3 in OT games this season.
+ The Suns scored the first 15 points in OT on May 4 at Cleveland, outscoring them 20-4 in the period. According to Stathead, the +16
margin was the largest ever by the Suns in an OT period (prev. +11 on Nov. 16, 1990 vs. LA Clippers) and tied for the 2nd-largest ever
by any NBA team (+17 by Portland at Houston on Jan. 22, 1983 and tied +16 by Milwaukee vs. New Jersey on Dec. 4, 1977).
+ The Suns' 20 points in OT on May 4 tied for the most in an OT period in Suns history (4th time scoring 20, last was Dec. 23, 1996).
SETTING RECORDS FROM DOWNTOWN
+ Despite playing 10 games fewer than the standard 82-game season, the Suns set a franchise record for single-season three-point
makes by making 940 triples (ranking 13th in the NBA this season). The 2020-21 Suns' bested the previous mark of 837 three-
pointers set by the 2005-06 Suns. The 2005-06 Suns set what was then the NBA record for the second consecutive season by
making 837 after making 796 in 2004-05; 25 different teams made at least 796 in a 72-game season this season.
+ The Suns made a franchise-record 25 three-pointers on 45 attempts on April 12 vs. Houston (previous record was 24 set on Feb.
20, 2021 at Memphis). The Suns made 18 three-pointers in the first half, tying the NBA record for most three-point makes in a half
(Utah on April 3, 2021). The Suns set an NBA record by making 12 three-pointers in the 2nd quarter (since matched by Portland on
May 10).
TEAM QUICKFACTS
+ The Suns enter the playoffs having won 4 straight games at Phoenix Suns Arena.
+ The Suns played at the NBA's 7th-slowest pace this season, averaging 98.00 possessions.
+ The Suns ranked 1st in the NBA with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 2.15.
+ The Suns twice tied the franchise record for fewest turnovers in a game this season, only turning it over 3 times on April 10 vs.
Washington and on Jan. 9 at Indiana, matching the team record initially set on April 7, 2012 vs. the L.A. Lakers.
+ The Suns also had 36 assists on April 10 vs. Washington. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, since turnovers first became a stat in
1970-71, the Suns recorded the most assists by any team in a game while committing 3 or fewer turnovers. The previous high was
33 assists with 3 turnovers done by the Suns on Jan. 9 at Indiana and by Portland vs. the Suns on Feb. 22, 1991.
+ The Suns went 11-0 this season when 7 or more players scored 10+ points.
+ No team had their shot blocked less often than the Suns as they ranked 1st in the NBA by only allowing 3.6 blocks per game.
GETTING BETTER
+ In MONTY WILLIAMS' career as an NBA head coach, his teams have posted a better record than the season prior in 6 out of 7
seasons. In his first season as head coach of the New Orleans Hornets in 2010-11, he led the team to 46 wins and the playoffs after
the team won 37 games in the season prior. Prior to the 2011-12 season, the Hornets lost All-NBA point guard CHRIS PAUL and
the team fell to 21-45. The Hornets/Pelicans then increased their winning percentage in each of Williams' final 3 seasons as head
coach, culminating in 45 wins and the playoffs in 2014-15. The Suns have improved their record from the previous season in each of
Williams' first 2 at the helm.
HONORING WESTY
+ The Suns are wearing a black band on their uniforms in loving memory of Paul Westphal, a Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of
Famer and Suns Ring of Honor member, who passed away on Jan. 2. From guiding the team on the court in the 1976 NBA Finals to
leading them from the sidelines in the 1993 NBA Finals, Westphal’s legacy in Phoenix crossed decades and his impact is unmatched.
+ Westphal garnered All-NBA recognition for four consecutive seasons with the Suns from 1976-1980, including three selections to
the First Team. He sits as the 8th-leading scorer in Suns history, totaling 9,564 points and averaging 20.6 points per game, and was
inducted into the Suns Ring of Honor on April 15, 1989. He served as the team's head coach from 1992-1996.

ALL-NBA PRECEDENT
+ DEVIN BOOKER averaged a team-best 25.6 points per game as he played a leading role in helping the Suns to the NBA's 2nd-best
record at 51-21. In 44 seasons since the merger (1976-77) through 2019-20, there have been 43 instances of a player averaging 25+
points while playing for a team that finished with one of the NBA's top two records, as Booker did this season. In all 43 occurrences
that player has been named to the All-NBA First or Second Team. In fact, in 37 of these 43 instances the player has been named to
the First Team and over half the time (23) a player records such a season he has taken home NBA MVP honors.

along with Milwaukee's Giannis Antetokounmpo and Portland's Damian Lillard.
THE POINT GOD
+ CHRIS PAUL finished just shy of joining the 50/40/90 club for shooting percentages in a season, but he still averaged 8.9 assists while
exceeding shooting splits of 49/39/89 in FG%/3P%/FT%. According to Stathead, he recorded just the 14th season ever of 8+ assists
on at least 48/38/88 shooting and it is the 2nd time he has personally done so in his career (also 2014-15 with LA Clippers). With the
Suns earning the No. 2 seed in the West, it marks just the 4th time ever a player has had 8+ assists per game on 48/38/88 shooting
while playing for a team that got a top-2 seed in the NBA Playoffs; each of the previous 3 were accomplished by Steve Nash for the
Suns, including both of his NBA MVP seasons in 2004-05 and 2005-06:

+ An experienced NBA coach highly-respected throughout the league for his coaching pedigree, his leadership and his commitment to
the community, the Phoenix Suns agreed to terms with Monty Williams to become the team’s new head coach on May 3, 2019.
+ In his first two seasons as Suns head coach has led the team to consecutive increases of at least 15 wins despite fewer games being
played in each season, improving by 15 wins in 2019-20 and 17 wins in 2020-21. By accomplishing this, the Suns became just the fifth
team in NBA history to increase its win total by 15+ games in successive seasons. Over the last 45 years, the Suns became just the third
team to improve from a bottom two record to a top two record in two seasons or less.
+ Led the Suns to the NBA's second-best record and the team's first Pacific Division title since 2007 in 2020-21. The team posted the
league's best road record and best record over the season's final 56 games (43-13) while becoming the first Suns team since 1997-98
to rank in the top 10 in both Offensive and Defensive Rating.
+ Recognized by his peers in an honor voted on by all 30 NBA head coaches, won the Michael H. Goldberg NBCA Coach of the Year
Award for overseeing the Suns' 2020-21 accomplishments. He finished as runner-up for NBA Coach of the Year, receiving more first
place votes than any other coach.
+ Named the Western Conference Coach of the Month for March 2021, his second time winning the honor.
+ In his first season as Suns head coach, he helped transform the team's culture and oversaw a 15-win improvement from the season
before his arrival despite playing nine fewer games, tied for the largest improvement in the NBA in 2019-20.
+ Named the NBA Head Coach of the Seeding Games after guiding the Suns to an 8-0 record in the NBA Bubble.
+ Spent five seasons as head coach of the New Orleans Hornets/Pelicans from 2010-2015, leading the team to two playoff appearances.
+ In his first season, the Hornets won 46 games and he was the Western Conference Coach of the Month for January 2011 as he led New
Orleans’ return to the playoffs after missing them the season before his arrival.
+ Following the departure of All-NBA guard Chris Paul prior to the 2011-12 season, Williams oversaw the growth and development of
one of the league’s youngest rosters, increasing the team’s win total in three straight seasons culminating in 45 wins in 2014-15.
+ In addition to seven seasons as an NBA head coach, has totaled seven seasons as an assistant coach, two seasons in a front office role,
one season as a coaching intern and nine seasons as a player, giving him 26 years of NBA experience since being drafted in 1994.
+ Got his start in coaching as a coaching intern with the San Antonio Spurs for the 2004-05 season when the team won an NBA
Championship. Before returning to the bench in 2018-19 as an assistant with Philadelphia, spent two seasons in the Spurs’ front office
as vice president of basketball operations from 2016-2018.
+ One of three assistant coaches for the USA Basketball Men’s National Team from 2013-2016.
+ Nine-year NBA playing career, averaging 6.3 points in 456 career games with New York, San Antonio, Denver, Orlando and Philadelphia.
+ The 24th overall pick in the first round of the 1994 NBA Draft by the Knicks after starrting at Notre Dame.
+ Recognized as a revered friend and role model to many in the basketball community and beyond, at the 2017 NBA Awards, was the
recipient of the inaugural Sager Strong Award.
