The Phoenix Suns didn’t end up keeping sixth overall pick.
They instead traded it to Minnesota for Dario Saric and the No. 11 pick — which the Timberwolves used to select North Carolina graduate student forward Cameron Johnson for the Suns in Thursday’s NBA draft in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Johnson wasn’t considered a lottery pick, which might exp why he wasn’t in New York with many of the other top draft prospects.
This was all part of a busy day for the Suns, who earlier traded TJ Warren and the No. 32 overall pick (second in second round) to Indiana for cash.
