The Phoenix Suns find themselves in a tough spot in the playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Dealing with the Wolves’ relentless physicality has proven challenging, according to Suns star Bradley Beal, who shared his perspective on how his team can turn the tide.
Acknowledging the Timberwolves’ defensive strength, Beal highlighted their utilization of Rudy Gobert to stifle opponents’ big men and key scorers. “They pride themselves on being one of the best defensive teams… they deny us all,” Beal remarked, showing respect for their opponents’ tactics.
Beal stressed the need for the entire Suns team to elevate their game collectively to overcome the Wolves’ defensive prowess. “We all gotta take it a step higher than what we are,” he emphasized, emphasizing the magnitude of the challenge ahead.
