When you consider the position the Phoenix Suns were in heading into this offseason, they didn't do a bad job of pivoting out of the Kevin Durant era in the end. Khaman Maluach was a lottery pick center with real upside - even if he's incredibly raw at just 18-years-old - while Dillon Brooks is going to bring a defensive intensity that has been lacking in The Valley in recent seasons.
Then there is Jalen Green, who many see as the key player that the franchise got back for an all-time great. That's a lot of pressure to put on a 23-year-old, and one who had both good and bad moments in his first playoff experience against the Golden State Warriors with the Houston Rockets.
