LAS VEGAS – The Suns planted a seed Saturday when they started three teenagers in an NBA Summer League win at UNLV.
They hope it sprouts to light and is ready for the the brightest stage someday. They also believe in early blooms. Few others do.
The Suns do not have to look far from NBA Summer League base for doubters. Nearby Las Vegas sports books peg them to be one of the NBA’s worst teams. MGM Grand and Westgate give them the longest championship odds with Brooklyn (1,000-1), as does MGM Grand with Brooklyn and Philadelphia (250-1).
