I feel like you're trying to suggest we shouldn't go after him, but this only suggests that he is way more likely candidate for the Suns to pursue than I was expecting.

Christian Wood was waived by the Bucks. Could be an interesting pickup for the Suns for the future.

Tell me why!
Signing Rubio's a heart ache
Tell me why!
Signing Rubio's a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say,
I want Rubio today

I was thinking the same thing. He produces. Don't the Suns have a spot available still?

Is he a PF?

I think he's a lot like Ray Spalding. He's long, lean and athletic, and I do think he plays pf.

He can hit 3s, too. If Holmes' injury requires him to miss time, I think I'd be good with getting some Wood.






*sorry

When he wakes up, do you think he has Morning Wood?

Glad to see others open to signing Christian Wood. I think he is better than Spalding. I would love to see the Suns bring him in.

The Bucks trainers had to get on him this season because he was getting a little chubby.

I saw a lot of UNLV games when Wood was there and always liked him. He'd be a good pick-up for sure, low risk, high reward.

Honestly, he could be a Bender replacement if Bender leaves this summer.
