During his one season at Syracuse with Jim Boeheim and company, Ennis proved just how skillful he can be with the ball, as well as how deadly of a shooter he can be. With this Suns team showing this past season that they’re nearly toward being a playoff contender, this was an amazing pick.
Afterward, the twitter universe reacted accordingly.
