We roll out the inaugural Bright Side BIG BOARD for the 2017 NBA Draft. The Phoenix Suns have earned the second-most ping pong balls for the Draft Lottery in mid-May, which guarantees them a Top-5 pick in the draft with a 19.9% chance at #1 overall.
Today we pose the five players the Suns SHOULD have on their board for that top pick, in terms of a player who fits most/all of their current young core. Fortunately for the Suns (or by design of the GM maybe?), the top 7-8 players on the board are point guards and small forwards who won’t overlap with the Suns youngest prospects in Devin Booker (SG), Marquese Chriss (PF-C) and Dragan Bender (PF-SF-C)
