The Suns were led by Paul Westphal in his third year as head coach, as they held the league's best record at 38–10 before the All-Star break,^[12] and finished the regular season in first place in the Pacific Division with a 59–23 record, earning the second seed in the Western Conference; this was the first time in the team's franchise history, in which they had ended the season with 55 or more wins for three consecutive seasons.^[13] All home games were played at the America West Arena.

All-Star forward Charles Barkley averaged 23.0 points, 11.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game, while Manning averaged 17.9 points and 6.0 rebounds per game, but only appeared in just 46 games due to a torn ligament in his left knee, which sidelined him for the remainder of the regular season, as he did not appear in any NBA playoff games for the Suns.^[14][15][16] In addition, point guard Kevin Johnson averaged 15.5 points and led the team with 7.7 assists per game, despite only playing just 47 games due to injuries,^[17] while three-point specialist Dan Majerle provided the team with 15.6 points per game, and finished the season tied for second with 199 three-point field goals, and A.C. Green provided with 11.2 points and 8.2 rebounds per game.

Meanwhile, Person contributed 10.4 points per game and 116 three-point field goals, and was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team, while Tisdale contributed 10.0 points per game, Elliot Perry played most of the regular season as the team's starting point guard in Johnson's absence, as he averaged 9.7 points, 4.8 assists and led the Suns with 1.9 steals per game, and Danny Ainge contributed 7.7 points per game off the bench.^[18]

Barkley, Majerle and Westphal represented the Western Conference during the 1995 NBA All-Star Game, which was hosted at the America West Arena in Phoenix, Arizona; it was the ninth All-Star selection for Barkley, and the third and final selection for Majerle.^[19][20][21] Barkley was also named to the All-NBA Second Team, and finished in sixth place in Most Valuable Player voting,^[22][23] while Perry finished in second place in Most Improved Player voting.^[24][23]

The Suns swept the Portland Trail Blazers in three straight games in the Western Conference First Round of the 1995 NBA playoffs.^[25][26][27] In the Western Conference Semi-finals, the Suns took a 3–1 series lead over the 6th-seeded, and defending NBA champion Houston Rockets,^[28][29][30] but for the second year in a row, had their playoff run stopped in a Game 7 home loss to the Rockets.^[31][32][33] The Rockets would go on to defeat the Orlando Magic in four straight games in the 1995 NBA Finals, winning their second consecutive NBA championship.^[34][35][36]

Following the season, Majerle was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers,^[37][38][39] while Ainge retired,^[40] Richard Dumas signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia 76ers,^[41] Schayes signed with the Miami Heat during the next season,^[42] and undrafted rookie point guard Trevor Ruffin was left unprotected in the 1995 NBA expansion draft, where he was selected by the Vancouver Grizzlies expansion team.^[43][44][45]

For the season, the Suns added new black alternate road uniforms, which remained in use until 2000.^[46]
