Let's hope our draft picks improve after the KD trade. I'd love to have #10 back.

It would be awesome if the Suns could get a Kevin Durant trade done sooner rather than later, especially if it includes an earlier 2025 draft pick.
Then we could better focus on whom the Suns might draft. It's hard projecting who will be available at #29 and #52.

Hopefully the Suns get some more second round picks.

The first four or five guys on that list are all intriguing. Hopefully, that's the top of their board.Who has worked out so far for the Phoenix Suns ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft?

A 23 Year old 5th year Senior who can shoot. It's safe to say JJ is still involved in our draft process.

Taking the BPA is the best way to draft, IMO, regardless of position.

I don't think we need any more shooting guards, regardless of BPA.

Collect them if they are talented and cheap. Then turn them over for a missing piece later on.
If a team drafts poorly, they have nothing.
I understand that view in the lottery or even teen's but we pick so far back that we aren't going to get anyone coveted by other teams enough to get more out of trading them. I'd rather trade for a future pick than draft a SG at this point. There's no minutes for them to develop or be showcased.
In the late 2nd round, I can kind of see the BPA approach since those players can be signed to Two-Way deals. Guaranteed deals from the first round though requires a more measured approach.
The Phoenix Suns may take a flyer on the brother of an NBA Finals breakout
Could the Suns take another brother and bet on bloodline toughness?

The Suns have made it clear: they’re targeting size, power forwards and centers, at 29, and looking for guard or wing depth at 52. So yes, Nembhard’s name being in the mix isn’t just smoke

If a team can trade for a future pick that should have value, that's okay, but that can get tricky. It's still better than making a bad selection.
James Jones likely passed on Haliburton because he had a point guard… huge mistake.
I agree 100% on those points. The situation with Hali was different as we were in the teens and needed a backup PG. At #29 or whichever pick we'll be at, we need to find a Dunn type who can fit into a rotation.

As long as the Suns make good selections, I'm fine with it. They can't afford to miss on players.
We agree the Suns need much more length and defensive minded talent.

The Suns work out Danny Wolf PF/C who could potentially be a lottery pick.
