WATCH: Keita Bates-Diop’s Length Will Do Wonders for the Phoenix Suns Defensively this Season

Phoenix Suns newcomer Keita Bates-Diop has one of the longest wingspans in the NBA at 7-foot-3.

When Burn City Sports’ Brendan Mau asked him how he can differentiate himself from the loaded group of Suns’ wings, he said his length, which gives the ability to defend bigger players and from the point of attack.

“My length is the biggest thing. I am comfortable switching on to bigger players,” he said. He went on to describe if for example they played the Clippers, he could guard Kawhi Leonard or Paul Gerge.
