With the second pick of their first round haul, the Phoenix Suns were sitting pretty and had a slew of options to consider for a second time. The first time they went on the clock at No. 14 overall, the Suns walked away with N.C. State standout forward T.J. Warren which meant that they were again picking with luxury at No. 18 overall.
As a result, the Suns ended up taking Syracuse guard Tyler Ennis with their second first round pick, which may alter things later on in the draft.
The Toronto Raptors were targeting Ennis at No. 20 overall so we could be seeing a trade here but the Suns have the luxury of taking whichever prospect they want and that’s what they’ve been doing so far.
