I would say Jalen Williams and DFox are both solid number 2s. Williams was all NBA last year.

Ya it’s probably JDub, but he’s missed a ton of time and the team just keeps chugging along…Caruso was actually the leading scorer for OKC last night.

The Spurs are more questionable…Fox is probably the 2nd option, but he didn’t play last night and Castle has been on his heels anyways…then of course Harper was the 2nd option last night and looks like the future 2nd option of that team.

I wonder why Wemby don't try to add a sky hook to his repertoire. He is blocked a lot for a guy his size. It would make him unstoppable.

Don't give him any ideas. And why does he set screens at the FT line? Once he learns to stay near the paint, that's when he will become unstoppable.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

Can we figure out the just throw the ball really high and have Mark Williams guide it into the hoop play?

Williams did have a longer standing reach than Wemby. Though I get the feeling Wemby might have grown since it was measured.

They have an embarrassment of riches at the G position.

Earlier in the year, I thought Fox would be for sale this summer. He still might be, but it's hard to imagine them making major changes right now. We will see how the season closes out.
"Hey, Jane - get me off this crazy thing called love." - Charlie, but also Suns fans wishing we didn't have to watch more 4th quarter small ball but knowing we will tune in for the next game.
