Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia says the team will improve, make the playoffs and win a first-round series, despite Phoenix’s recent postseason struggles and being viewed as short of the West’s top contenders. The Suns are betting heavily on a retooled roster around Devin Booker, including Miles Bridges, while injuries and a difficult conference could complicate the push. Ishbia says he is focused on owning teams he can help make more competitive, rather than building a sports empire, placing added pressure on him to deliver results in Phoenix.

The suspension disrupts preparations for the planned live-racing season, though the track’s live-racing permit remains in place and regulators will review the matter at a November hearing.
