The departure of Chris Paul last week has left the Phoenix Suns orphaned with a starting point guard, so the name of another veteran in the hierarchy like Russell Westbrook began to sound.
However, there would be a compelling reason for the Arizona quintet not to take over the services of the record man for triple-double in the NBA and who was MVP of the regular round 2016-2017.
Report: Russell Westbrook unlikely to sign with Phoenix Suns due to Frank Vogel https://t.co/clhrBmFA88

It is that The Athletic medium assured that the new coach of the Phoenix Suns, Frank Vogel, prefers another type of point guard before Russell Westbrook, whom he trained in the Los Angeles Lakers during the 2021-2022 academic year.
In fact, the team selected for nine All-Star Games in the league began to drop in numbers playing under the technical direction of Vogel, since he left 18.5 points per game, 7.4 rebounds and 7.1 assists in the ciudadp exercise, with disastrous 66.7% in free throws and 29.8% from the line of three.
Of course, if they do not get a driver to the taste of Frank Vogel, Phoenix will test Devin Booker in that position, with the newly acquired Bradley Beal as shooting guard and Kevin Durant as forward.
Likewise, in a few weeks it will be known if the Phoenix Suns end up discarding a Russell Westbrook who finished the 2022-2023 financial year playing with the Clippers.
