What happened: Phoenix detailed Oso Ighodaro's 2025-26 impact ahead of the 2026-27 season. He posted a +5.1 net rating to lead Suns regulars and appeared in all 82 games.

Why it matters: The production frames the context for his three-year, $29M extension through 2030-31. His switch defense held ball-handlers to 0.97 points per possession after screens. Phoenix generated 616 points off his screens, third most in the NBA.

By the numbers: Net rating +5.1, best on Suns (min. 1,000 minutes). 82 games played, one of 18 players leaguewide. 0.97 points per possession allowed switching onto ball-handlers; 616 points generated off screens, 3rd in NBA.

What to watch: Phoenix continues preseason preparations for 2026-27 with its extended rotation intact. Ighodaro's screening and switch defense bears watching as lineups settle.
