In spite of being in a rampant form already, the Phoenix Suns are set to make a huge splash in the market. Even with their current roster, Monty Williams and co. sit comfortably on top of the Western Conference. However, they are likely to receive a huge boost in the form of an experienced center-forward. This potential acquisition is 25-year-old Domantas Sabonis.
Spearheaded by the guard duo of Devin Booker and Chris Paul, the Suns have edged Stephen Curry’s Warriors in the table so far. Courtesy of some astonishing cohesive play, the unit looks set to go one step further from their 2021 finish. In their most recent win, they downed the in-form Chicago Bulls. And with their latest reported addition, it won’t be just the guards dominating for them.
