Draft Prospects' Reactions to Monty Williams' Hands-On Approach

The Phoenix Suns had 36 draft prospects workout for them last week as Monty Williams received his first opportunity to lead as the newest head coach of the team. While most pre-draft workouts don’t feature the head coach, Williams took a more hands-on approach by guiding the drills and teaching along the way. The prospects definitely took notice to the unique experience.

BENNIE BOATWRIGHT: Real good guy. I can tell by just meeting him today. Gained a lot of wisdom from him. It was a great experience… He was big on guys and their confidence during the draft because you might not go as high as you want to go, but he said just understand that you’re a hooper and you have value.
