On June 26th draft, Suns traded Mavie + selected Maluachi, indicating that they still don t want to rebuild
Before this year's draft, the NBA's trading market was already in chaos. 4 major deals have been completed in just 48 hours before the
Draft conference began.
Since the Thunder won the championship, four major deals have occurred in the NBA on the eve of the draft. Including:
The first transaction: Durant was traded to the Rockets! Swap Jaylen Green + Dillon + No. 10 draw + 5 rounds
Second turn: The Celtics trade Holiday to the Trail Blazers for Anthony Simmons + 2 rounds!
The third transaction: The Pelicans traded to get Poole + Sadiq Bay! Send CJ + Olynik away!
The fourth transaction: three-party transaction - Pozin goes to the Hawks, Nets get Mann and Niang goes to the Celtics
This does not include the transaction between Bain exchanges Pope + Cole Anthony + four unprotected first-round picks + one first-round pick swap transaction completed a few days ago. The deal to send Durant away caused a huge change in the Suns' lineup. They will next form a team around Booker + Green's backcourt double guns and try to find an opportunity to send Bill away.
However, before this, the Suns still need to solve an important problem, and it is also a chronic problem that has plagued them for two seasons, which is the weak center position of the team.
The Suns traded for Richards last season. Although Richards played well, it was still difficult to take on the inside of the Suns.
In view of this, on the day of the draft, the Suns quickly completed a deal in exchange for Hornets center Mark Williams, who was returned by the Lakers on this year's trading deadline.
According to ESPN famous reporter Shams Charania, the Hornets sent Ma Wei to the Suns in exchange for this year's No. 29 pick and a first-round pick in 29 years.
According to sources, the 2029 first-round pick is the worst among the Cavaliers, Jazz and Timberwolves (top five protections).
In this way, the Suns finally have a center.
This is not the end. On the draft day, the Suns won the strongest center among the rookies this year with the No. 10 pick from the Rockets, Maruach from South Sudan. Maruac is 2.18 meters tall and is a black and hard violent center.
His arrival gave the Suns two powerful centers at once, and a major problem of the Suns was solved.
It is said that the Suns' management is poor, especially in the Durant deal completed with the Rockets, the Suns have very limited chips to get back. Many people say that the Suns' management level is too bad.
But in my opinion, Sun management is still very courageous. He dares to think and do things quickly and does not drag on the slumber when he says he wants to trade Durant. If you need a trade to come, you can take action quickly and get two at once.
It seems that the sun still does not want to enter the deep reconstruction phase. They have strengthened the team's shortcomings. Next season, the three-back combination of Green + Booker + Bill, and with minor repairs, this team still has the ability to make the playoffs.
The Suns clearly don't want to get the Rockets easily, because they still have two first-round picks in the hands of the Rockets. If you enter deep reconstruction early, it will become a bad move for the Rockets.
Ma Wei has the attributes of a glass man. It is worth considering how good his physical condition is. If he can recover from health, it will be a huge addition to the Suns.
And Maruac is full of talent and is the most promising center among this rookie. It is also the most unfinished player. If trained properly, it is worth looking forward to.
The Suns and Rockets' Durant deal, who will be the big winner in the end, will have to wait a season or two before making an evaluation.
