An NBA player with big upside... who would have been a pretty cheap contract for the next couple years.

I'm beyond frustrated if this is the reason the Suns didn't pick up the option on Smith.

I’m pretty sure they don’t scout college players and just got lucky with Cam.

Ty Jerome was a later pick who is looking like an NBA player. Of course they traded him after his first season.

Ayton reportedly asks for some rest so McGee will come into the game. He leaves with 6 points but 0 rebounds.

The foul committed on Booker is ruled a flagrant 1. Pistons player came underneath him.

Trey Lyles is starting to turn into the player I thought he might.

Ayton is still out of the game. He reportedly asked to come out.

Really? I guess I thought the same thing when he was in his 3rd season but then he regressed for the next few years and now he's back to playing almost as well as he did then. I don't know if it was injuries or whatever but I've lost interest in him, IMO he'll likely never be more than a decent player off the bench.

It looks like Smith will play center after he replaces McGee.
