Double-double in loss
Gillespie registered 15 points (5-13 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, 13 assists, one block and three steals across 32 minutes during Monday's 138-134 overtime loss to the Jazz.
Analysis
Gillespie recorded his first double-double of the season, logging a season-high 32 minutes in the process. Phoenix is basically trying anything to win at this point, having not found a winning formula thus far. Gillespie's playing time has fluctuated wildly to this point, making him a hard player to trust, despite the upside.

Collects 13 points from bench
Gillespie recorded 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-8 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 129-102 loss to the Clippers.
Analysis
Gillespie is off to a decent start, and his third season could be where the Suns utilize his untapped talent. It will be a harder task to earn minutes when Jalen Green (hamstring) returns, so he'll need to impress while he still can. Otherwise, he's destined to spend another season buried on the depth chart.

Plays 22 minutes off bench
Gillespie closed Wednesday's 120-116 victory over the Kings with seven points (3-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 22 minutes.
Analysis
Gillespie finished third among Phoenix's reserves in minutes behind only Royce O'Neale (29) and Mark Williams (24). Gillespie also played more minutes than Oso Ighodaro (19). The Suns' rotation could be a mess all season, but seeing as Devin Booker starts at the one but isn't a true point guard, there could be plenty of minutes available for a floor general like Gillespie.
