The Phoenix Suns have had a rocky season thus far. Starting strong at 9-2, their record has dropped below .500 following a rough patch after all-star break. 

With the playoffs still in reach, the star-studded trio of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal position the Suns as a team to keep an eye on. Looking to catch the final stretch of the season, you’re in the right place; In this guide, we’ll outline the best places to catch Phoenix Suns action.

For local fans, Suns games will air primarily on Arizona’s Family. This streaming service is offered exclusively to residents of Arizona and the Albuquerque metro area. Coverage costs $14.99 per month or $109.99 per season and will grant you access even when you’re traveling.
