He's always been a gifted scorer dating back to his days at NC State (averaged 25 his last season there). He got injured his rookie year and was due for a breakout season last year but got injured again. Tucker's injury made it easier for him to get the minutes he deserved and he's proving that he's worth it. Bledsoe/Knight/Booker/Warren/Bender/Chriss is a very solid young core the Suns have (not a big fan of Alex Len). Crazy scoring talent. Booker/Bender/Chriss are all teenagers. They're gonna be interesting to follow if any of their bigs can reach their potential.
I haven't watched the Suns yet, but from the teams I have watched I liked Frazier. Well considering I had hardly watched him before lol With the current state of the Pelicans he will put up good numbers also. Oh also MKG. The one game I watched he was great. I also liked Kilpatrick.He isn't the high caliber young prospect but so far he has been invaluable for his team. Parker has been godawful. Porzingis hasn't been doing well either.
Gordon improved on his rebounding and passing but his scoring has not I think made a huge a big leap. He is only averaging 10 points a game
I'm gonna go with Will Barton. I think that people are going to start looking at this kid the way that they now look at Jimmy Butler. He is a two-way player at the sg spot. He can basically do everything. I wouldn't be surprised if he got a max deal and people are going to be like, who is will barton. He is such an under-the-radar player.
When he was drafted, I bought a custom made Giannis shirt because I was such a huge fan of his. I thought he would be mediocre, but I really thought he was a neat player. Wow. I never would have predicted he would become a super human/ super star player. Who could have?
Agree. He always finds a way to score, even if offensive scheme doesn't include him. His defense is a bit suspicious, but he's working on that. Suns have a great coach for their young core: he encourages them instead of pulling them on bench after first miss and is a good guy overall. Too bad for Alex Len and Archie. Especially Len. He hasn't made enough progress to make him a starter over Chandler, who hasn't got any offense going for him and is old. TJ Warren showed flashes of what he could do first year already, when he was backing up Tucker. Very unselfish in offense, very willing cutter, lives "off the scraps".
