It’s Draft Day 2025. A day of change, of possibility, of turning the page. A day when a single hat, placed on the head of a young prospect, can signal the start of something new. A new direction. A new era. A new hope. Cue the John Williams score.
Like most Phoenix Suns fans, I find myself scrambling. I’ve spent weeks analyzing what the team could do with the 29th and 52nd picks. Writing, speculating, and imagining outcomes. And while I did consider the idea of Phoenix moving up in the Kevin Durant trade, I didn’t spend nearly enough time thinking about what it would actually mean to hold the 10th overall pick.
