The addition of Jae Crowder to the Phoenix Suns does more than add depth to the Suns lineup. It does more than create toughness in the locker room and on the court. It does more than fortify a culture of physicality.
It signifies that the Suns are now a destination for players.
It had been rumored when Jae Crowder chose to sign with the Suns in free-agency that he did so with other suitors on the table.
Suns beat out three teams, one of which was Dallas, to sign Crowder to three year deal.
