Eric Bledsoe, Phoenix Suns
2014-15 Stats: 17.0 points, 6.1 assists, 5.2 rebounds
With the likelihood that Markief Morris gets traded this summer grows with every passing day, the Phoenix Suns are going to need Eric Bledsoe to step up more than ever.
Assuming that Morris is traded – which would be good to assume since he wants nothing to do with the organization – Bledsoe will need to take on full leadership heading into this season. With Goran Dragic out and now, with what all the reports indicate, both the Morris twins gone, the only real remaining face on the Suns is Bledsoe.
He, along with Brandon Knight, need to take bigger roles this season. And it starts with Bledsoe.
