It was pretty apparent on his first shift. On one inbounds play he nearly ran over the player receiving the ball, I also think he instantly shot the first couple times the ball got in his hands.

I am taking my dad and older brother to the game tomorrow. I don't think either has attended a Suns game in over 10 years. My dad's family had season tickets in the 70s and through a good part of the 80s until they got bogged down by a bunch of egg sucking kids .

Yep, lost the opener to Denver, then lost a week later to the Kings. Both games we blew double digit first half leads. The Kings loss was especially irritating... apparently the Suns felt the same as they won their next 18.

As I see it, Jalen Smith is the better option when the Suns go deep on their bench.

Those early games were much like preseason.

The wife, myself and my youngest will be at the game tonight cheering the team on to start a new streak. We are super bummed we won't get to see Book tonight play but I would rather him be 100% before returning.

Yup. If he’s an nba player it hasn’t really shown itself yet.

Wainright's jumper looked good in summer league as well. However, I'm not sure if he is deserving minutes over Smith though.
