The Phoenix Suns 2001–02 were led by the versatile production of Shawn Marion, whose scoring, rebounding, and defensive contributions anchored the team, while Stephon Marbury directed the offense as its primary playmaker and a leading scorer. Penny Hardaway provided secondary ball-handling and perimeter scoring, and Jake Tsakalidis added size inside. The Suns combined balanced offensive contributions with strong rebounding and defensive activity, though their perimeter shooting and overall scoring efficiency were less consistent.
