Unexpectedly, the biggest leak king in the NBA free market is actually the Suns!
Constrained by the new collective bargaining agreement, the Suns' ability to strengthen in free agency is very limited, and they can only sign players with base salaries.
This summer, they signed Plumlee and Monte Morris, and kept Damian Lee and Bolbol, but these leftover players have not been substantially strengthened for the team.
You must know that the original team of this season only finished sixth in the regular season and had a dismal record in the first round of the playoffs.
Therefore, the Suns have become a joke in the league, spending the most money (total salary of 230 million next season, luxury tax of 235 million, total expenditure of 465 million, ranking first in the league), and taking the most vicious beating!
However, today, the Suns completed the most "right medicine" signing, signing Tyus Jones for 3.3 million in 1 year!
Tyus Jones, who played in 66 regular season games for the Wizards this season, averaged 12 points and 7.3 assists per game, with only one turnover, and shot 41.4% from three-point range.
He's a true traditional top defender, leading the league in assist-to-turnover ratio for three consecutive seasons.
He's exactly what the Suns Triumvirate needs!
This season, Booker and Beal have taken turns trying to play point guard, but the results have not been good, after all, both are offensive guards, and scoring is the biggest killer.
Therefore, when the three are on the floor, the offensive system relies more on the single play mode, with Booker playing to Beal, Beal playing to Durant, and Durant playing heavy to Booker......
Now, the boss of the Suns is smoking from his ancestral grave, and he actually signed the most missing person with a contract with a base salary, and the Suns will become the favorite to win the championship again.
