Former Phoenix Suns backup guard Jevon Carter met with the media the other day on a Zoom call after being introduced by the Brooklyn Nets.
The Suns traded Carter and the 29th overall pick (which became 6’11” big man Day’Ron Sharpe) to the Nets for shooting guard Landry Shamet on the day of the 2021 NBA Draft.
Phoenix objectively got an upgrade in Shamet, a good shooter on the move and better playmaker than Carter. He is also a few years younger than Carter, hinting at a chance for even higher upside.
