In our happy dreams, Phoenix Suns teens Marquese Chriss will become Amar'e Stoudemire, Dragan Bender will be Toni Kukoc, and Devin Booker will be Kobe Bryant with a likable personality. More likely, it will be a mixed bag among the Suns prospects.
Now 6+ years since the Phoenix Suns were last relevant among the NBA landscape, they appear to have finally fully committed to a rebuild with youth. Young prospects abound, with at least one at every position, and three promising players selected in this past summer's draft.
GM Ryan McDonough enjoys a reputation as a brilliant talent scout, and NBA analysts are generally impressed by what the Suns are doing to establish a young foundation.
