Phoenix Suns

Wishlist: A Star

The Suns are 14th in the West and i think it’s safe to say they are in the middle of rebuilding. They have two young studs in Devin Booker and T.J. Warren who are putting up great numbers this season. In order to speed up this growing process, they need playoff experience ASAP. We are going to help them with that.

The last superstar Phoenix has had in their city was Steve Nash, but not for long. We’re signing Chris Paul in free agency this summer!

Bledsoe has been hit or miss when healthy (which hasn’t been much), and Brandon Knight has been sitting on the bench waiting for his opportunity to prove he can play for a while now. It might be time to move on from trying to force these two to fit. The Suns desperately need veteran leadership, and a guy that has been there before. Someone who is a pure passing PG that can set up their budding young guys Booker, Warren, Chriss, and Bender.

Enter Chris Paul.

Before you say anything, hear me out. Chris has played in a very small market before in New Orleans. The Clippers are one year away from possibly falling apart with CP3, Blake, and JJ all becoming free agents this summer. If the Suns want to turn their franchise around, what better way to set up their future with CP3 running the show?
