There has not been much chance this month to see how Sonny Weems’ jump shot improved from playing four pro seasons in Europe.
Not when he constantly is running ahead of everyone.
Playing 31 minutes of Tuesday’s Suns overtime loss to Houston, Weems enjoyed the best preseason opportunity of his NBA return. He racked up 11 points, four assists, three rebounds and five fouls with the activity of a bee.
Weems slammed for four of his five field goals, getting a putback for the other. It might have been five dunks had he not been fouled on another fast break.
