Phoenix Suns
This is not a position.
Frankly, it requires a leap of faith to get a franchise that’s done little to deserve you. The Phoenix Suns are creeping toward the end of a fourth successive season with a sub-.300 winning percent. They’ve had four distinct coaches during that stretch and may consider another change following this season. There’s also a troubling tendency of dysfunction within the business.
However, this is a players’ league, and the Suns have some of the best up-and-comers in the business.
Devin Booker is 22 years old and an explosive scorer (25.1 points per game). Phoenix’s mishandling of the point guard spot also forced him to grow as a shot-creator, and he’s responded with a career-best 6.7 assists per contest. Deandre Ayton, 20, should be a first-team All-Rookie lock and also just the third NBA freshman to ordinary 16 points and 10 rebounds during the 2000s.
That is probably it for potential celebrities, but players such as TJ Warren, Josh Jackson, Mikal Bridges and (if he is re-signed) Kelly Oubre Jr. are all capable of handling complementary roles. With this core still set to rise through the Suns’ own first-rounders and an incoming pick from the Milwaukee Bucks, the talent base will continue to enlarge.
