NBA: All-Time starting 5 of the Phoenix Suns

Forward – Charles Barkley

Charles Barkley

Already a future Hall of Famer when he arrived in Phoenix in 1993 via trade, Charles Barkley had his best years with the Suns. Barkley only played four seasons in Phoenix but he was named NBA MVP in 1993 and he was an All-Star four-times while with the Suns.

Barkley helped the Suns make the playoffs four times during his stint there. He even led them to the NBA Finals in 1993 but they lost to Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls in six games. Barkley was inducted into the Suns Ring of Honor in 2004 and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2006.

Honorable Mention: Forward – Tom Chambers

A beloved player in Phoenix, Tom Chambers spent five seasons with the Suns making five playoff appearances during his tenure. Chambers was also a three-time All-Star while he was in Phoenix and a two-time All-NBA Second teamer. He is already a member of the Ring of Honor but he is the only 20,000-point scorer in NBA history who has not been inducted to the Hall of Fame.
