B/R says veteran PG Tyus Jones will have the most instant impact for the Phoenix Suns.
PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns are just weeks away from what promises to be one of the more intriguing training camps of any team in the NBA following an eventful offseason that included a new coaching hire, an injection of rookie talent, and some quality minimum contract free agent signings.
"Blame can be ascribed to a number of factors. The absence of a conventional floor general stands out most."Bagging Tyus Jones at the minimum is the mother of all steals. Possession management will never be an issue with him on the floor. He has notched an assist rate north of 25 with a turnover rate below nine in each of the past three years. Michael Jordan is currently the only player on record with as many such seasons under his belt.
Jones facing questions as to whether he'll be a closer late in games is more of a testament to the overall talent at the guard ranks - him being an option to be a "steadying presence" for an offense that struggled to close games last season is just a luxury - and that was recognized immediately after the concerns.
