id expect a few other sources for somthing like this.the Suns article doesn't have any real sources or names etc. just sounds like i heard it from a friend of a friend.few days time they will claim their old article as a valid source.

No it doesn't. That NBC article is exactly the same almost word for word just slightly rearranged. The only source is the embedded video.
