The quick turnaround for the Suns begins with the NBA Draft, but from there it won't be long before some of the team's younger players hit the court.

What a quick turn around.

this is going to be big for Stix if he’s still on the roster

Also Ty-Shon Alexander as he fights for a roster spot.

but are we really counting on Alexander to contribute next year? I feel like Stix is exactly what we could need. I have faith he’s going to be good he has to much talent and works to hard not to be good his body just wasn’t ready.

Alexander was on a two-way contract last season so I think they may give him a look. The Suns NEED Stix to step up this coming season and show he can be an NBA player.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Alexander would be a nice add if he developed. He’s 6’4, can shoot, and didn’t look like physical liability on the court. Of course he’s a long shot, but those long shots are what push very good teams into great team territory.

 

[Hoop Head]

If Tyshon-Alexander can fill in for Nader or Galloway that's a plus. By that I mean a guard who can attack the basket and or score when they see the floor. He's not likely to be a big piece but if he can fill the 13, 14, or 15 spot on the roster that's a plus since he'll be cheap and we already know he meshes well with his teammates here.

Nothing like the draft, trades, free agency and summer league to get the blood flowing.

Long as no more stix type hope suns try to add size if they keep 29th pick not sure if a decent young pg will be there at 29...

Go suns make smart move tonight

We will see. Mostly I'm liking point guards and combo guards at #29 not that I don't think there are some big men available later.

Usually bigs that late in the round are just projects that need a lot of development. Usually centered around upside and potential. We arent into player development like some east coast teams are, and need someone to contribute.

I'm making my call today...I think the suns will trade it with someone tonight.

The Suns could do this but I will be very disappointed if they pass on Miles McBride especially with Cam Payne's future uncertain. I think there will be a number of guards who can play some at #29.

 

[Chaplin]

Miles McBride is the Tyrese Haliburton of this draft. If we pass on him... man the board is going to be unbearable in 2021-2022.

no he’s not. If he was that good there wouldn’t be talk about him going 29

 

[Chaplin]

Totally missed the point, but ok. If he's available at #29 and he's the best available, and we don't take him... how am I wrong? We have the #29 not the #10, it's all a matter of degrees.

Teams can talk to free agents starting August 2nd and start signing free agents on August 6th.

Stix definitely needs a good showing in summer league.

There was no summer league last year with the bubble and late season start. So this will be Stix first SL outing and he really needs to show something.
