Suns’ second unit is embracing its role and forming a team-first identity
Monty Williams acknowledges he does not know what it’s like to be an All-Star or have a State Farm commercial, a nod to Suns standouts Devin Booker and Chris Paul.
Williams does know what it’s like to toggle between starting and coming off the bench. The Suns’ coach previously carved out a nine-year NBA playing career due to his versatility, and his willingness to buy into systems and embrace the roles that he was assigned. He often was not sure what would be in store for each game, recently recalling the time he learned just before tip-off that he would start and guard Michael Jordan.
