Phoenix Suns Prospects Deep Dive with Kellan Olson




The Stepien NBA Draft Podcast show

Summary: Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.Com and the Empire Of The Suns Blog joins Cole Zwicker to check in on the status of The Timeline. We start out assessing the progress of the Suns' young prospects in a macro sense, how they are adjusting to Jay Triano and suss out who exactly is part of the "core" moving forward. Then in true The Stepien and Ode to Oden fashion, we deep dive into the offensive and defensive strengths and weaknesses of Devin Booker, Dragan Bender, Marquese Chriss, and Josh Jackson, including how our evaluations have changed since each was drafted, what we see their respective ceilings as, what skills they need to improve on and where we would take each player in a re-draft. Lastly, we discuss the Suns' 2018 draft options with their own pick and the Miami pick, and close by touching on where the Suns should go from here in terms of roster building. Enjoy!
