Why This Trade Would Benefit The Phoenix Suns
It is time that Devin Booker and the Phoenix Suns find their way to the postseason. The acquisition of Chris Paul got them a little closer and now they could turn into complete contenders by trading for Karl-Anthony Towns. This would balance the roster and take the team to the next level.
Towns has played just four games this season. When on the floor, he is one of the top big men in the league. He is averaging 22 points and 12.5 rebounds per contest. Towns is a big man who can dominate downlow or step out and knock down shots from three-point territory.
Chris Paul is the type of leader at point guard who will fit in wherever he goes. Karl-Anthony Towns and Devin Booker have a connection and are friends from their days at Kentucky. The new-look big three in the Western Conference could catapult the Suns into contention.
The Suns have been rebuilding for too long now. It is time to make some big moves towards the postseason. They have already made one with Paul and there is room for another here.
