Richards had one of his best games in a Suns uniform versus Chicago, posting a 15-point, 10-rebound double-double. The Suns were seeking him out all game on rolls to the rim, and another big performance could do a lot for his confidence moving forward after an inconsistent start to his Phoenix tenure.

Beal is the third option, but if the Suns move the ball and move bodies, he can be the one who gets open looks off how the defense reacts to Durant and Booker. On Beal’s dagger 3, Chicago chose to double Durant essentially at half court.
