This is brilliant! I think Booker, Durant and Watanabe will work so well together.
He’s an alright player.
Good fit
As he should. Yuta was great with him in BK. His energy just brings up the whole team's vibe.
News is boring with sundo we want solo Gabe
Also a good size 6 ft 6 to 6 ft 8 like and Aaron Gordon or Michael Porter Jr
Gabe/SUNDO y’all really my guys! Thanks for the updates! Keep ‘em coming!
a great fit. higher ceiling than cam johnson,
Hell yea bra was a bucket
This would be a great pick up. Whats not to like about him. Give him more playing time on the Suns and he'll be a gem. Probably better than anything we've picked up in the past 2 years in the summer..
40 PLUS % 3 PT SHOOTING!!!!!!!!!!……..❤❤❤❤❤
51% corner treyyyy
Idk if Kevin love is interested in Phoenix but we can try and get him, word around the league is that he’s good luck for every team he joins
Very Interesting 🤔
Exactly what you guys are missing. A consistent shooting role player that isn't a liability on defense and will fit financially well with your limited cap space!
yes!!!!!
We need Mikal to Phoenix. I don’t know what else at that point.
This is not your team Durant
More size for Denver
He is a great shooter, a skilled player, he can defend and brings energy and passion. It's also a plus he has chemistry with durant playing together in Brooklyn. One of our main concerns is replacing what we lost in having to trade away miles bridges and cam johnson. Yuta is very similar to johnson. So, now we need to add depth at power forward and pointguard. We also need to add a lockdown defender on the wing. We have okogie but one more wouldn't hurt. Maybe Jordan walsh or Andre jackson in the draft. Miles mcbride or Jared butler could be picked up for very cheap and would be solid with the ability to get better and maybe becoming starters. Seth curry, Naz Reid or trey lyles could also be given a chance here. Any of them could be solid role players .
Not a bad move. Has height and maybe could be a new Cam Johnson type player
Perfect fit
Yuta would be good. He's sneaky good. I remember watching Brooklyn when KD was there and they play so well together.
I’ve been a Suns fan my whole life I’ll be a fan my whole life we’ve never won anything hopefully before I die 🙏🏾
This will be amazing 🤩
CP3 for yuta and cam Thomas 💪🏽💯
A great move and I'm sure Yuta would be willing because KD shows him a lot of love and Brooklyn pretty much threw him to the back of the rotation with the new trades.
I watched every nets game last season with KD except the clippers game that started early.
I can tell you this guy can play. He hustles, great spot up shooter especially in the corners when he's wide open.
He plays solid defense all around. You don't have to worry about his defense. He's better than Craig or okogie at defense at the very least equal and a much better open shooter than both.
Not bad at fighting for rebounding if you ask him or need him to He can finish one on one drives to the rim against most players.
If you can get him for less than 10 million a year he's a really good pick up. If you can get him for anything under 6 million he's great and basically a steal.
I also would try singing Bruce brown.
Saw him play wit KD just as well as he played with the nuggets. He's a baller. Unfortunately he might cost significantly more because of what he showed recently in these playoffs but he's a great player.
I'm not sure if KD and Brown get along so that might be out of the question.
The suns need to at leats sign Yuta and another 3 and D guy and keep Payne.
Or sign Yuta and a new PG.
