The Phoenix Suns have made their selection. After trading the 22nd overall pick back to the Denver Nuggets, the team selected Ryan Dunn from Virginia at 28. They also received three second round picks in doing so, including the 56th in 2024 as well as two more in the future. Bravo, James Jones. Bravo.
James Jones stated after the draft in a Zoom call with media that, ““We wanted to get more athletic. Defensively, on the perimeter, we wanted to add some size and some youth.”
Mission accomplished.
We will be watching and waiting the second round to see what Phoenix does with the 56th overall pick — Bronny, anyone?
