27. Phoenix Suns (11-40)

The Phoenix Suns are another bad team, but it’s interesting to hear that they’ve been somewhat active in potentially upgrading their roster in the days leading up to the NBA Trade Deadline. Over the last few weeks, they’ve been linked to Dennis Smith Jr.

He would be a perfect fit in Phoenix, too. He meshes well with the team’s current timeline, along with Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton, and he’s a point guard – something that the Suns don’t have of at the moment.

At the same time, the Suns could probably find a great point guard in the 2019 NBA Draft, especially if they’re going to draft in the top 5 again.
