Superstars across the league have been uploading their summer workout videos to Twitter and Instagram to much fanfare across their social media outlets. We’ve all seen Ben Simmons working on his jumper, Devin Booker dominating open gym to such an extent that the only way defenders could stop him was to send surprise double teams his way, and DSJ and Aaron Gordon having a dunk off. All of that is fine and good but in reality, gym workouts really don’t hold a candle to competitive in game action.
That’s why Suns fans should pay extra attention to the upcoming FIBA World Cup which will feature star point guard Ricky Rubio as well as Phoenix’s prized new big man, Aron Baynes.
