The excitement that followed Jalen Lecque from New Hampshire to Phoenix will travel with him to Prescott Valley on Monday as the undrafted rookie free agent joins the Northern Arizona Suns roster for training camp.
Lecque will join an intriguing roster of young players in Prescott Valley, where the project of developing the athletic prep-to-pro guard will begin.
Still, Lecque will be the focus of the developmental energy of the NAZ coaching staff. The front office surrounded Lecque with more talented players than you’ll find on most G League rosters. Coaches will be able to spend less time educating the rest of the roster and spend more time on Lecque, who may need more of a hands-on approach than pro veterans.
