Fit is vital in the NBA. A player — even a very good player — can bounce around the league, making multiple stops before landing in the place where their game is fully unlocked. Dillon Brooks was a productive NBA player with the Grizzlies and a very good starter the past two years for the Rockets. But in year nine, at 30 years old, Brooks is having the best year of his career and helping usher in a new era of Suns basketball in the process.
Brooks' impact, both on the court and off, has been so crucial to this team makes sense that the Suns are shutting down any Brooks trade chatter before it even starts.
