Torrey Craig making difference, providing insight about former team in Suns-Nuggets series
Phoenix Suns coach Monty Williams says they'd be in a "different place" without Torrey Craig.
His former Denver Nuggets teammate, Monte Morris, can see why.
"Phoenix was looking for a guy like Torrey," Morris said. "A guy who can cut well, make the 3 and defend at a high level. So I think him being on that team definitely took them to that next tier level for sure."
The move to acquire Craig from the Milwaukee Bucks for cash considerations before the trade deadline didn't generate a major buzz when it occurred, but it gave the Suns a player who continues to impact their play in the postseason.
