Cam and Ty are technically not Phoenix Suns players yet, so they can't be included on the roster atm. Kinda silly, I guess.

Not sure why Bridges, Melton, and King aren't on the roster, though. Very strange.

Sounds like King was on the Jazz roster. Not a huge loss, imo. I thought it was a dumb pick when it happened, tbh.

I was at the jazz summer league game yesterday. King wasn’t listed on the roster, but I’m pretty sure I saw him on the bench

Welp, the Melton question has been answered.

I'm looking forward to watching Jalen Lecque.

Same. I haven't even watched any highlight videos. I'm going to wait for live game action.

I wasn't really impressed at all with his highlights. They were all just straightline drives to the basket and tomahawk dunks. Like...every single highlight. And he was playing against regular high schoolers. There was nothing to take from any of them.

I'm keeping an eye on Harper, Cooks and Owens.

So, what you're telling me is that you're going to look away every time Lecque has the ball?!

I was joking of course. Looking forward to some "Suns" basketball no matter how diluted it is. Hopefully, we get to see the new guys (1st rounders) on Sunday. Play style will be interesting to see since it might indicate how the big club plans to play.

Yea and I wasn't dogging the kid out or anything. You weren't missing anything by not watching the highlights. But he looks very young. Same as Archie when we drafted him but in interviews he seemed pretty put together.

I always get too excited about SL but I do like the UDFAs we have. Did I miss anything on why Bridges isn't playing?

Suns fans wouldn't be able to handle the disappointment if he sucked.

I haven't heard anything about Bridges yet. The roster is pretty big. Maybe they think they already know what they have with him and they want to give these other guys a chance?

Want to see Ty play...interesting read...

Thanks, Vlad. Good article. I’m really curious to see how he looks at the next level.

I'm glad we still have Okobo.

He also said Lecque won't make the team (he has 2 years of guaranteed salary.) I'm not quite sure Gambo always knows what he's talking about. It's obvious the DAR stuff was coming from Dudley who was getting info directly from DAR. He does talk to some players, agents and GMs (Ainge) but he's also clueless about what our front office is really thinking and doing.

Me too. Hope he shows up at Summer League and stays on the roster. His shooting is a nice complement to Rubio at the PG position and his ceiling is high imo.

I want Okobo to stay on. Chances are he won’t become anything, but he certainly has a high ceiling I agree. He’s worth the gamble.
