The Suns failed in their opportunity to break over .500 Wednesday evening and now sit in third place in the Pacific at 4-5.

Phoenix has rebounded nicely from a 1-3 start but still has yet to post a winning record this season. They will get a chance to push the Lakers (3-5) further to the bottom though this Friday when they head out to Los Angeles.

As for the rest of the division, the Clippers (6-2) remain the king of the Pacific castle with Wednesday night's resounding 107-100 win over the Miami Heat to send a message to the rest of the conference.

The Golden State Warriors (4-4) are still continuing to turn some heads even in the absence of center Andrew Bogut, earning a tough 92-88 win over the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday.

The Sacramento Kings (2-6) have not been as fortunate when it comes to wins this season. After showing signs of hope and putting together a little two-game winning streak, the Kings have dropped three in a row.

Below are the complete divisional standings:
