Only a handful of NBA teams can claim that they signed bona fide contributors from this fall’s NBA Finals in free agency, and the Phoenix Suns are one.
That’s what general manager James Jones said stood out to him about Jae Crowder, who signed a three-year, $29.1 million contract in late November to join the Suns. In particular, it’s the fact that Crowder is a player who has always known his role and fulfilled his duties capably on winning teams for his decade-long career in the NBA.
James Jones calls Jae Crowder a "winner" from experience over nearly a decade of "high-level" basketball and compliments the way Crowder is able to sacrifice in the name of winning.
