Suns’ Brown Upset at New Role

A shower after the game Sunday was unnecessary for Shannon Brown. “I did it earlier,” he said with a grin.

Brown, like the 14,923 fans in attendance at US Airways Center, watched the Suns lose to the Spurs, 97-87. He never checked into the game. It was his fourth straight DNP-Coach’s Decision, the only four games he has missed this season.

“It bothers me every night,” he said. “It bothers me from when the first time I didn’t play. But I kind of felt it because my minutes was going down a little bit. You get that feeling, especially when you’ve invested as much as I am into basketball and basketball being my life and me loving it like I do. I got that feeling kind of and slowly but surely it started to happen.

“It hurts. It is what it is though. I understand it’s a business and I can’t take it too personal.”
