The Arizona Republic conducted a poll assessing fan views on the Phoenix Suns' offseason moves for the 2026-27 season. Of the 763 votes on a social media poll, 55% awarded the Suns a B grade, while a separate poll yielded a similar split, with 35.64% giving an F grade. The Suns retained key players and added rookie Koa Peat and three-point specialist Luke Kennard. However, the trade for Miles Bridges, amid concerns over his past domestic violence incident, has drawn criticism from a significant portion of the fanbase. The Suns are seeking to maintain team chemistry under first-year coach Jordan Ott.
