Vasilije Micic could be the missing piece to Suns’ depth

The Phoenix Suns have a unique opportunity to land a true superstar this offseason that would allow Chris Paul to take on a smaller burden.

I’m not talking about Kevin Durant. I’m not talking about Donovan Mitchell. I’m talking about 2021 Euroleague MVP Vasilije Micic, who was drafted 52nd overall in 2014 by the Philadelphia 76ers, but has never come over yet from Europe despite getting up there in age, now 28 years old.

The Oklahoma City Thunder now hold his draft rights, and have been receiving interest from several teams that want to trade for Micic, given recent comments about feeling ready to come to the Association.
