Shortly into training camp this past season, JJ Redick said on an ESPN podcast that the Suns aggressively pursued him in the lead-up to July free agency.
With the season in the rearview and the man to whom Phoenix gave their spending money last summer, Trevor Ariza, long gone, it’s worth wondering how things may have been different if the Suns signed Redick last summer.
Firstly, our closest comparison to how greatly shooting helped the Suns’ offense is Troy Daniels, and looking at his on/off numbers paints a stark picture of how Redick could have helped the Suns score.
