Phoenix Suns private workouts include Davis, Valentine, Onuaku, Chriss, Bender, Luwawu

The Phoenix Suns hosted several lottery prospects for their 4th and 13th overall selections, including Marquese Chriss, Dragan Bender, Denzel Valentine, Timothe Luwawu and Deyonta Davis.

After Saturday's star-studded private workouts, the Phoenix Suns have now hosted at least 76 prospects for the NBA Draft, which takes place Thursday night.

I say "at least" because the leaked participants in yesterday's closed workouts included a solo workout for Croatian forward Dragan Bender, a strong candidate for the 4th overall selection, and a group workout with an odd number (5) of participants. Since the workout includes a 3-on-3 scrimmage, the Suns may have brought back a local kid like ASU's Gerry Blakes to even up the numbers or may have had another lottery-level participant not yet released.
