Another day, another first round candidate for the Phoenix Suns. Last Friday, it was Jerian Grant. Today, Devin Booker from Kentucky came calling.
Booker is a 6'6" shooting guard, with emphasis on the shooting part, who won't turn 19 until the first game of the 2015-16 season. He played his freshman season at Kentucky, spending most of his time in a shooter role with a half-dozen other pro prospects in a vaunted Kentucky lineup.
I asked GM Ryan McDonough if drafting another kid so young as Booker is kinda like trading out of the draft for a future pick.
