The Phoenix Suns have no fewer than 11 new faces on their roster for the upcoming season, but none comes with as much of a reputation as Dillon Brooks. The 29-year-old Canadian enforcer the kind of guy you love to hate when your team comes up against him, but are delighted to have on your side when he suits up.
This is a role Brooks has successfully created for himself during his team in the league, and it led to a successful stint with the Houston Rockets. That fanbase were understandably delighted to acquire Kevin Durant this offseason, but many were also quick to point out how much Brooks would be missed as the emotional heartbeat and defensive dog of their group.
