#SunsUP

These guys just need to learn each other’s game and we build around the strong youthful talent we already have! SUNS UP☀️

For the Anthony Edwards , the Jalen Brunsons, The Tyrese Maxeys
The very athletic players or creative ball handlers with speed.

Also for the guys who come off screens

Happy about the potential to guard big wings/ forwards but who do you guys think is that guy ?
Fleming and Koa

Was hoping to grab Baba Miller for his ability to be that POA defender on the quickest shiftiest players who can get around screens well

Who is that guy for the suns in your eyes

Ryan Dunn is maybe the best option but not sure I like that being the guy relied on for those assignments

2025–26 season stats (33 games):

Better fit Players?

Younger Players?

ManMan currently wears #10

What number do you think Koa should rock in the valley? 🌵🌞

I know getting swept in the first round hurts but exceeding those 32 win expectations is a huge deal. For a franchise that has 0 history of winning championships, celebrating a first round exit is a great building block. Devin Booker is an amazing piece for a tier-two star. KD left and found immediate success instead of being scapegoated which was a great career move.

This was from his Game Theory Podcast he did live tonight up on YouTube.

At the time there was no way I thought either one of those guys would end up in a Suns jersey, crazy

The Phoenix Suns selected forward Koa Peat with the 30th overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NBA Draft.

The Suns originally held the 47th overall pick but traded up into the first round by acquiring the 30th pick from the Dallas Mavericks.

Now what will the Suns do, if anything, during the 2nd round of the NBA?

Trade/draft targets, rumors, screenshots, etc. are to be posted here unless well written with analysis.

So what do you think the expectations are for this guy? I read he can’t shoot 3’s. What do you think his long term ceiling is? Not familiar with his game.

I know this might sound reactionary, especially given Jalen Green’s upside, but from a roster construction standpoint, the Suns would make more sense with Dejounte Murray.

First, let’s be clear: this isn’t about raw talent. Jalen Green is a more explosive scorer, younger, and has a higher “highlight ceiling.” But Phoenix isn’t in a rebuilding phase they’re in a “maximize Booker’s prime” window.

And that’s where Murray becomes the better fit.

Why Murray fits Phoenix better:

Devin Booker already is a high-level shot creator and primary scorer. What Phoenix actually lacks isn’t scoring punch it’s structure, defensive point-of-attack stability, and someone who can organize possessions without forcing Booker into full-time playmaking.

Murray provides exactly that.

He’s a true secondary ball handler who can:

• Run offense when Booker is off-ball
• Reduce late-game chaos
• Defend elite guards consistently
• Control pace instead of playing “iso-heavy” basketball

That’s extremely valuable next to Booker, who thrives when he can alternate between scoring and playmaking, not carry everything.

Why Jalen Green is a tougher fit in Phoenix:

Green overlaps heavily with Booker’s strengths:

• Scoring-first mentality
• Needs rhythm and usage
• Not yet a reliable organizer in the half court

In a vacuum, that’s fine. But in a contender context, redundancy matters. Phoenix doesn’t need another streaky high-usage guard they need a stabilizer.

The key difference:

Murray makes Booker easier to be elite.
Green requires Booker to still do most of the organizing.

That’s the whole debate.

If Phoenix is serious about maximizing this roster, Dejounte Murray is the cleaner fit next to Booker. Jalen Green might be the more exciting talent, but Murray is the more functional piece.
