How I wish the Suns could get #5 and draft Fox. All is good no matter.

It would be awesome to get Jackson and Fox.

This Is who I think they should have picked if they won the lottery. I genuinely feel the suns are a bottom half playoff team right now. We will see how the rest of the night plays out (if they trade bled to Denver then maybe not ) . He looked upset by the way !

I'm pretty excited about how that worked out!

IDK if any of these guys are going to be as good as the experts claim, but I really like Jackson I think he will be a good fit as we continue to build for the future.

I noticed. Maybe a trade is still a possibility.

Suns have Jackson now, joining Chris, Warren, Bender and perhaps also Jones. 5 for 2, just overly crowded front court.

There must be a trade including at least 1 or 2 from above, plust Knight, for a combo guard.

I'm waiting for something to happen.

I bet Suns trying to move up for their 2nd pick.

I don't see that as overcrowded, especially with how the NBA has changed and few teams play traditional Centers. We have those 4 plus Chandler covering 3 positions. Jackson and Warren can play PF, Bender and Chriss can play Center. I don't think Derrick Jones Jr fits into our long term plans. Plus they're all so young and need to develop, only Warren has proved he can play 30+ minutes a night. The others need to earn more than 20 minutes a game.
