this is going to be the most interesting Suns summer league in some time.

Michigan State’s Tyson Walker has agreed to join the Phoenix Suns for NBA Summer League, I’m told.18.4 PTS, 2.9 REB, 2.8 AST, 1.9 STL en route to 2nd Team All-B1G honors.Dynamic 6’0 ½" initiator w/ a shifty handle and deadly pull-up game — tactician punishing drop coverages.

Sounds as if he has Nash-like chops…

Prediction:

This guy ends up being a classic "summer league" guard. He will be the dude who we all get annoyed with as he tries to ball hog his way into the league, freezing out all the draft picks that we're interested in seeing.

The 2.8 assists may suggest otherwise

This feels more likely. High scoring/low distributing collegiate guard trying to wow teams.

Maybe, but I'm all for bringing them in and trying them out.

It's just the nature of the summer league, if it's not him it will probably be someone else.

It's typically ugly basketball, guys who clearly have only just met, suuuuper whistle happy refs, and a boat load of guards with tunnel vision.

But... there isn't much else going on that time of year so I will probably end up watching some of it.

Yeah, I always enjoy watching, that is, if I can add it to my new television package.

It's been a hot minute since we have had guys in Summer League that will actually play on the team.

He’s got speed and shoots around 40% from three over his last three years of college.

He is just tiny. 6-0 is generous. And he is like 160 lbs.

We could use a spark plug

A lot of smaller point guards get ignored because of their size. A number of them can play at the NBA level.

A younger Isaiah Thomas is an example. He was drafted at #60.

We will get to see these guys in summer league: Ryan Dunn, Oso Ighodaro, Jalen Bridges and Collin Gillespie
