The Phoenix Suns are benching Eric Bledsoe, arguably their best player, for the final 15 games of the season.

General manager Ryan McDonough said the decision was made to give the 27-year-old point guard some rest and further expand playing time for the team’s younger players, particularly rookie point guard Tyler Ulis.
