Where do the Phoenix Suns play basketball?
Talking Stick Resort Arena

Talking Stick Resort Arena is a sports and entertainment arena in downtown Phoenix, Arizona and is the home of the Phoenix Suns of the National Basketball Association (NBA). It opened on June 6, 1992, at a construction cost of $89 million as was originally called America West Arena. It was known as America West Arena from 1992 to 2006 and as US Airways Center from 2006 to 2015. Located near Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks, the arena is one million square feet in size on an 11-acre site. Renovations were completed in March 2003, which feature a 16,000-square-foot air conditioned glass-enclosed atrium built on the northwest side of the arena, to keep patrons cool while waiting in line for tickets or spending time inside the building before events. The total cost was estimated at around $67 million. The upgrading of the arena was done as part of the Phoenix Suns' plan to keep it economically competitive after Gila River Arena opened. On January 23, 2019, the Phoenix City Council voted in approval for further renovations involving the arena, with the Phoenix Suns paying up to $80 million, alongside any further costs necessary for said renovations.
