So it is written, so it is done.
We could give you a long, drawn-out recap of this game. It’d be fitting, really, for a season that felt exactly that: long and drawn-out. But instead, we’ll keep it brief. Here’s a quick look at what unfolded on the final day of the 2024-25 regular season, in a game against the Sacramento Kings that, for the Phoenix Suns, meant absolutely nothing.
The Suns had no business putting anyone of consequence on the floor, and rightly so. Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, both of whom suited up in Friday night’s win over the Spurs, were nowhere to be seen. As for Kevin Durant? His final appearance came in that listless loss to the Houston Rockets. That might not just be the last time we saw him this season. It might be the last time we ever see him in a Suns uniform.

As for the game in Sac Town this afternoon? The Suns, who lost the game 109-98, were led in scoring by 20 points from Grayson Allen. Ryan Dunn went for 12 and 10.

And so ends the regular season. For the Phoenix Suns, this is the end of the line. No anxious anticipation of a Play-In game. No playoff stress. Just silence. For the 57th time in franchise history, the season ends without a title.
To everyone who stuck it out — who slogged through the highs, the lows, and all the baffling in-betweens — thank you. The team may not have delivered, but your loyalty never wavered.
Now comes the real fun.
