NBA: Ranking the 10 teams with the most talented young cores
3. Phoenix Suns
Core: Deandre Ayton, Devin Booker, Josh Jackson, Mikal Bridges, Marquese Chriss
The Phoenix Suns are often overlooked, but they have one of the deepest young cores in all the NBA. And it all begins with Devin Booker, who is also the fearless leader of the team at the moment.
Deandre Ayton was the No. 1 overall pick in this past year’s NBA Draft and will likely be one of the favorites to come away with the NBA’s Rookie of the Year award. Josh Jackson was last year’s prized prospect, who is also only beginning to scratch the surface on his potential.
Mikal Bridges and Marquese Chriss are two other players on this roster that could develop into really good players too.
