The Dayton big man went to high school in Arizona and could earn his stripes in Phoenix.
The Phoenix Suns' first day of significance pertaining to team-building since the hire of Mike Budenzholer on May 11 is upon us, as the first round of the 2024 NBA draft is set to be held on June 26.
Today we will be looking at DaRon Holmes of Dayton, a three-year star who has overall received a polarizing assessment from scouts and fans alike.Holmes is possibly the most offensively versatile big man in this year's draft - he was the only player in college basketball in 2023-24 to hit 30 threes while also connecting on 70+ dunks during the season
While Holmes might be more limited as a traditional rim protector due to height, the versatility, instincts, and athleticism are a scintillating combination that should intrigue Suns fans.Uses his length combined with his quickness very well on this play to come up with a huge block on the shooter.While Holmes did shoot 38% from three-point range as a junior at Dayton, he shot sub-33 percent in the two preceding seasons.
