There was a post on r/nba saying that Tatum’s nickname in China was “the Cute Rabbit.” Someone in the comments asked if the Suns had any fun ones so I looked it up and thought y’all would enjoy too.

Kevin Durant is Schoolbag Du. He used to wear backpacks to press conferences and Du is short for Durant.

Barkley is the Flying Pig.

Stephon Marbury is Marburyist Political Commisar, which is a pun on Marxist political commisar due to similar spelling.

Nash is Son of the Wind, though it should have been Sun of the Wind.

Shaq was O’Fat by the end of his career, which I assume would be the Suns era.

Anyone know of any others? I thought these were funny/interesting and now I’m curious if we have others that I missed.
