If it is obviously the arrival of Bradley Beal who made the most noise and who concentrates the most enthusiasm, another signing raises questions on the side of Phoenix: Can Bol Bol win at the Suns?
Because the inside of 2m18 remains on his best career season, in Orlando, with interesting sequences and 9.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.2 against average. But as the Magic (which has also given up on the son of the late Manute…) did not have the ambitions of the Arizona franchise, can it be duplicated at a higher level?
“He will have his chance”announces James Jones, the GM of the Suns, for the Arizona Republic. “He corresponds to the team profile that we are trying to build: he is long, athletic, gifted. He played at a very good level and managed high expectations. He bounced back from difficult moments, so his mentality, his resilience and the ability to adapt that he has shown are qualities that I think will help improve our team. »
His new teammate, Kevin Durant, had been seduced by Bol Bol’s qualities during the course of last season and his signing sounds like a bet for the Suns.
“If he can play the way he envisions it gives us another top player to rely on and build on on our way to the title,” concludes in particular the manager.
