12. Phoenix Suns
Backcourt: Brandon Knight & Eric Bledsoe
I love this combo the Suns have with Eric Bledsoe and Brandon Knight. They each have the ability to go for 20-plus points on any given night. But here is the problem they will run into if they make the postseason.
It’s no secret the game slows down in the playoffs, and neither player honestly looks to be the set-up man, or the ball distributor. Bledsoe is undersized to play the 2-guard spot and defense is not his strong suit, either. Knight has to become a pass-first guard in order for the Suns to reach the next level.
