00:00The Phoenix Suns have been red hot, winning 8 of their last 10 games, and Ryan Dunn explained

00:06why this year's team has much better chemistry than last year's group. Dunn explained that

00:11there isn't just one single reason, it's a combination of several factors. He pointed

00:16to the coaching, the roster, and the fact that the team might be playing with less pressure,

00:21just going out there and playing freely. But for him, the biggest difference is the locker

00:26room atmosphere. He said the current team's chemistry is really, really good, and that

00:31all the players gel together. He also revealed that this strong bond didn't just happen when

00:37the season started. It began much earlier, with the team spending time together in Flagstaff,

00:41which is a favorite spot for Devin Booker, through shared workouts, going out to dinner,

00:45and just generally hanging out. Dunn was careful to clarify that last year's team didn't hate each

00:50other, but he said, you can genuinely feel a different kind of energy this year, both on the

00:57floor and in the locker room. Now, one of the key players he credited for helping create this new

01:03energy and culture is his teammate, Dylan Brooks. Dunn had some really interesting things to say

01:09about Brooks. He joked that he always says Brooks is crazy on the court, but he was emphatic that off

01:15the court, Brooks is the complete opposite of his public persona. Dunn described him as a really

01:21down-to-earth guy, who is nice, makes jokes, and likes to laugh. Someone you absolutely love having in

01:28your locker room. Dunn even expressed how grateful he is that he doesn't have to play against Brooks,

01:34given his fierce reputation, and is thankful to have him as a teammate. He explained that Brooks

01:40sets the tone for the team, making sure everyone is in the right headspace. For Dunn, personally,

01:46he's learning a lot from Brooks defensively, watching how he gets into opponents' heads and

01:51guards the best players, which is a valuable lesson for his own career. So, what do you think? Is a

01:57player's off-court personality as crucial to a team's success as their on-court performance?

02:02So,
