THE PHOENIX SUNS
The Phoenix Suns seemingly are just one piece away from the playoffs. If they move up for the first overall pick, the selection is seemingly going to be PG LaMelo Ball, who would fit right in the Suns lineup and get to learn behind Ricky Rubio. While the price is expensive, if Ball reaches his ceiling, Phoenix could have one of the best big-3 trios in the league for several years.
From the Timberwolves perspective, they would be adding a really, really good 3-and-D wing/forward. Mikal Bridges is already a solid and consistent player on both ends of the floor, something that Minnesota very much needs. Getting someone that can slot right into the starting lineup (in addition to the tenth overall pick) would be great. Ty Jerome is also someone that struggled over the course of his first year, but isn’t someone to discount moving forward.
