Abdel Nader might get the chance to swing a Suns playoff game

Pyramid Papi. Dulie. The Tor-Nader. Darth Nader.

Whatever nickname you use to describe Phoenix Suns’ wing Abdel Nader, it is good to have him back and healthy. He possesses length on defense and aggressiveness on offense, both attributes that will assist the Suns as they look to bring home their first championship in franchise history.

When the Suns sent Ricky Rubio, Kelly Oubre, Jr., and Ty Jerome (plus picks) to the Oklahoma City Thunder, they received Paul and Nader in return. The third-year player from Iowa State added wing depth and, although many considered him to be a throw away in the CP3 trade, he made an impact on the team.
