Eric Bledsoe does not want to play for the Phoenix Suns anymore — he literally told us this on Twitter — and on Monday night he’s getting his wish. He met with the team before shootaround on Monday morning for the tonight’s game against the Sacramento Kings and was sent home, according to ESPN’s Chris Haynes. He won’t play tonight — and one would think there’s a possibility he won’t play for the Suns again.

Bledsoe told Suns general manager Ryan McDonough that he was at a hair salon when he tweeted “I don’t want to be here anymore,” but the GM didn’t believe him, according to ABC15. That’s an elite excuse from Bledsoe.
The Suns have had an absolutely brutal start to their season. Three games in they’ve lost all off them, including by more than 40 points twice. That led to the firing of Earl Watson on Sunday and three assistant coaches. One of them, Mehmet Okur, did not go down quietly.
It appears Bledsoe won’t either:
Only 79 more games to go, Suns fans. Sheesh.
It looks like it’s time to start preparing for a season without Bledsoe.
