The Phoenix Suns have been rolling, winning their last five consecutive games and moving into the fifth seed in the Western Conference. Devin Booker’s reinsertion into the starting lineup is a primary factory, but ancillary performances have assisted with the consistency that has equated to winning.
One of those players who has been providing consistent play (and some dominating slam dunks)? Drew Eubanks.
In 15 games this season, the backup big man has been electric. He’s shooting 60.8% from the field, averaging 6.2 points and 4.7 rebounds in 18.3 minutes played. His production has allowed Jusuf Nurkic to be aggressive, for if he gets into a spat of foul trouble, the Shaq of Troutdale is waiting int he wings to absorb minutes and play with connectivity.
