The Phoenix Suns need a power forward, and 6’8″ 230lbs Chuma Okeke has the perfect body size for a tweener power forward, but does he have the skill-set necessary to excel in the NBA?
Prior to injuring his ACL in the NCAA Tournament, Chuma served as a linchpin for Auburn both offensively and defensively.
