A Phoenix Suns insider has criticized Mat Ishbia’s handling of basketball matters, citing chaos and instability since his increased involvement.
Despite Ishbia’s friendly demeanor and basketball background at Michigan State, the source questions his deep understanding of the sport and highlights his significant role in key decisions despite potential knowledge gaps.
“It’s like looney tunes around here. It’s felt unstable since (Ishbia) arrived. He’s a good guy and everything, I think, but he’s just very involved. Too involved.
“I know he played (college basketball at Michigan State), but I’d venture to say he has no idea what he’s doing when it comes to basketball. Yet he’s making a lot of the big decisions.”
