Suns have 6th pick and 32nd pick in 2019 draft.

[slinslin]

I'd like to see us move up a little from #32 to nab Tyler Herro or someone like that

These are some players that the Suns have worked out for the 32nd pick.

Here are prospects who met with the Suns in Chicago, and will be available around their range at No. 32: • Grant Williams - Tennessee • Eric Paschall - Villanova • Dylan Windler - Belmont • Kyle Guy - Virginia All were team captains who could optimally stretch the floor.


8:55 AM - 20 May 2019


Kyle Guy may be one of the best shooters in the draft. He can play some point guard but his calling card is shooting.

Below is link to a write-up about Kyle Guy:


CHICAGO — Kyle Guy doesn’t just think he’s the best shooter in this year’s NBA draft class.

He knows it.

“In every meeting (with an NBA team), I try to reiterate that I know that I’m the best shooter in the class,” Guy said Thursday at the NBA draft combine.

The Suns have met with Guy, who shot 42.6% from 3-point range (120-of-282) and helped Virginia win a national championship. Phoenix finished last in the league last season in 3-point shooting percentage at 32.9%.

I will say, free agent PG+ Garland/white+Kyle Guy is 1000X better then Crawford Melton and okobo

You are close to right except Crawford was mostly a mentor for the Suns younger players. Everything else he provided was gravy.

Melton and Okobo were rookies. The Suns expected too much of them.

The Suns do need to add a veteran starter at point guard and perhaps a point guard in waiting like Garland or White.

I like Grant Williams and Eric Paschall as a banger off the bench (though my preference between the two would be Williams, even though Paschall has more size) and Guy as a back-up point who can shoot. Windler can also shoot, but we have too many wings as it is.

Williams can be a Paul Millsap type in the NBA, in my opinion.

I'm going to need to study these players. At first glance some of them appear to be a bit shorter than I would like but so was Millsap.

Grant Williams is projected to go #23 by Tankathon.

Herro's game really does look similar to Booker's.

He could easily be this years mid round gem.

Fall's 7-foot-7 measurement in shoes, 8-foot-2 1/4 wingspan and 10-foot-2 1/2 standing reach all set combine records. By all accounts, Fall performed well in combine scrimmages. And Fall wasn't originally invited to the combine, only earning an invite after impressing in the G League Elite Camp.

He is supposedly a very intelligent kid-- and very well-liked by classmates throughout high school and college. I have no real thoughts about drafting him, but he is one of the interesting stories to watch in this draft.

Too high for 6th pick. If he's there at 32, and worst case develops into a back up center for 15 years on your team, that's a great pick at 32. I think someone will take a flyer on him maybe late first round. I just think a guy named Tacko in AZ would be marketing gold!

If you want marketing they should draft hachimura from Gonzaga, sun's could claim the Japanese market

I don’t know if you’re being tongue in cheek, but (a) Japan isn’t exactly a basketball market like China; and (b) the Japanese market isn’t all that large in the grand scheme of things.

Thanks , of course it'll be harder to watch sun's games since they will be at like 11 am while I'm at work

I have Sony Vue, I DVR all the games. It has unlimited DVR space. It works over the internet, so you should be able to get it in Japan.

I thought it was already settled that the Suns pick 32nd in the second round because the Cavaliers won the tie breaker in the first round and would draft no worse than #5.

They both finished tied in the regular season standings.

Duane Rankin writes this:

The Knicks had the NBA’s worst record while the Cavaliers and Suns tied for the second-worst, but Cleveland won the blind draw to break the tie and will have the second pick in the second round ahead of the Suns, who will pick third.

Item number 12 at bottom of the Tankathon page seems to clarify this:


12 Second round ties are in reverse order of the teams' first round picks

The Suns own two overall selections in the 2019 NBA Draft; in addition to the No. 6 overall pick, the Suns also possess the No. 32 pick, as confirmed by the results of the Lottery tonight. The 2019 NBA Draft will be held on Thursday, June 20, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Straight from Suns.com, we have the 32cnd pick. A lot of mocks do shoe 31, incorrectly.

There is no question the Suns draft at #6 in the first round per NBA Lottery results.

I was surprised to read his comments about the Suns second round selection.

I know I keep seeing 31 on mocks. But the Suns themselves say it's 32. They should know. Not sure why there is confusion since the coin flip seemed like it made news on a slow news day.
