<p>The last thing in the world the Phoenix Suns need is another bust for a point guard. If I were them I would draft a big man who can score and defend around the basket. The best available at this point is going to be Myles Turner, who spent his college days dominating at Texas.</p> <p>Turner is tall, lanky, and agile. He has a natural instinct for basketball and seems to always find a way to put the ball in the bucket. The most attractive part of Turner’s game is his shooting ability. You don’t find many who are this tall that can shoot as well as Turner can, which will make his high post presence something that every team needs to take a look at on the stat sheet if he is lining up across from them.</p> <p>Phoenix is in rebuilding mode. Getting rid of Goran Dragic means they don’t have any plans for this up coming year to be playoff contenders, but in the next five years or so they could be good. It’s going to take strong free agency moves and even better drafting, but the Suns aren’t screwed just yet.</p>. PF. Texas. Myles Turner. 13. player. 66
