Our Suns Player Preview series continues, this time introducing the newest member of the Phoenix Suns to wear jersey number 4. Chimezie Metu wore the same number in his college days playing for the University of Southern California, and the power forward/center of Nigerian descent became a member of the Suns when he signed with the team in early July. Metu was an unrestricted free agent after playing three seasons with the Sacramento Kings.
Metu’s addition to the roster will give Phoenix some depth at both power forward and center, although other moves in free agency have diminished the potential returns he was slated to provide.
