With the Suns 118-111 loss to the San Antonio Spurs Sunday, the Suns finished their seven-game February home stand 0-7.
What is significant about this level of futility at home you say?
Well, the Suns became just the second team in NBA history to go win-less during a home stand of at least 7 games.
If the Suns lose to the Spurs, they'd join the 1964-65 Warriors as only teams ever to lose every game of a 7+ game homestand (@EliasSports)

The Phoenix Suns join the 1964-64 San Francisco Warriors as the only team to “accomplish” this feat. That Warriors team, interestingly enough, experienced that horrible home stand in February 1965 right after trading away a certain player that you may have heard of, Wilt Chamberlain.
The Suns have lost 26 out of their 28 games since December 18. They are now in full on tank or “Slim Winnings’ for Simmons” mode for perhaps the first time in their franchise history.
Here’s to hoping for better days to come in Phoenix.
