NBA writers have been trying to find topics to fill their time as we await the possible return of the 2020 NBA season.

Ranking current NBA uniforms has become one of those topics.

The Phoenix Suns' look is a polarizing one, according to recent rankings.

The team's jersey is not ranked high in most NBA jersey power rankings.

The Suns' uniforms are ranked as high as No. 14 in the league, but as low as No. 26.

Check out what NBA writers are saying about Phoenix's threads in their NBA jersey power rankings.

Could it be time for the Suns to make a change?

Scott Gleeson wrote: "The franchise's '90s Charles Barkley-era unis are top-notch. What's happened? Similar to the team's disarray on the floor, the design department keeps going back to the drawing board."

Do you like the Phoenix Suns' uniforms? Some NBA writers aren't fans of the team's look.

Paul Ladewski wrote: "Their so-called Statement Edition features orange jerseys and orange shorts with a purple stripe and no mention of the team name anywhere. So what’s the message? These people really, really like orange. The Planet Orange unis will be worn at Friday night home games except one against the Golden State Warriors, the team that they absolutely should wear them against every time. Hey, if you can’t beat 'em, blind 'em."

It wrote: "The Suns went from having arguably the best uniforms in the league with Steve Nash to some of the worst. Since making a change two years ago, Phoenix is much easier to watch on the floor. All they have to do now is fix the losing basketball they've played for the better part of the last eight years."

For the Win: Suns' uniforms No. 14 in NBA

Mike D. Sykes, II wrote: "I might be grading the Suns a bit unfairly. Their 90's jerseys are some of the best pieces of art to ever be viewed on a basketball court. Comparing these jerseys to those? Probably unfair. These are pretty good but they definitely aren't those."

ESPN really likes the Suns' '90's black jersey. Do you?

ESPN recently ranked the Suns' Western blue uniform that the team wore from 1973-92 the 65th best in NBA history.

It ranked the team's '90's black jersey, worn from 1993-2001, No. 11.

Would the team be better off going back to one of those, or updating one of them for its current uniform?
