On ESPN’s daily NBA show, NBA Today, there was a segment about what will be the key to the Phoenix Suns winning a championship. Two-Time WNBA All-Star Chiney Ogwumike talked about the Suns’ center Jusuf Nurkic holding down the paint against the elite big men in the league. ESPN Senior NBA Writer Zach Lowe talked about the defense as a whole. 17 year NBA veteran Richard Jefferson closed out the segment by talking the lack of elite play-making on the Suns’ roster.
Jefferson gave examples of other “big 3s” in NBA history and talked about who was the point guard for those teams.
