Been thinking about Paul Westphal a lot the last few minutes. The best word I could use to describe Westphal is “genuine.” A kind, unpretentious man who lives out his faith. We’re with you, Paul.

Woj, can you let us know what kind of brain cancer he has? Some are benign but most of them kill people eventually. Do you know what stage he got?Sebastian leone wrote
um that is contradictory… if he had cancer it is not benign because benign means non cancerous, i think you mean tumor in which he has a cancerous one.Peter Kwong wrote
Remember watching him in Phoenix and the classy Suns back then. Was a Suns “benchwarmer” and had a few chats with him when I young. Always a classy person, on and off the court. Greatest “shot heard around the world” Celtics game when he stole that inbound ball. Prayers for him.Sid Cooke wrote
Agree,a true gentleman but never a bench-warmer with the Suns as he averaged 20. pts 5.2 assists in 6 seasons including 25.2 in PPG in 1978 also had four 40pt games
Westphal was 3x all NBA with the Suns.Rubin@LiveXLive wrote
Mr. Ambidextrous. All us 70s kids in Phoenix revered Westy. Best all-around NBA guard for five straight years & made the sickest clutch plays in the triple-OT finals in ‘76 STILL an underrated player. HUGE prayers to Paul Westphal. Folded hands.
