Steve Nash has always been loyal to his teammates. Even with the Phoenix Suns’ recent struggles, that won’t change.
This year’s squad is not a star-studded group. Although the team has shown its ability to win games, it is not the high-powered offensive juggernaut Nash used to orchestrate.
However, unlike other NBA superstars, Nash has no motive to request a trade. He has been a class act in the league, and it’s no different in this case. The two-time MVP has expressed that he owes it to the team and the organization to stay committed.
One would think a player who is reaching the end of his career wants to team up with other stars and increase his chances at an NBA title. But this is not the case with Nash.
One of the best point guards of all time may end his career without a ring, but when he does finish, it will be with the assurance of being a great teammate and leader.
Nash has always been one of the most liked players in league, and it looks like it will rightfully stay that way.
