this is the trash suns bench?
No way man. They just played well in a preseason half so I think they’re probably a top-5 bench of ALL TIME
People overreact to preseason. But the Suns actually did fill out their bench well. .
With Gordon, Allen, and Watanabe, that is three guys capable of shooting 40% from 3 coming off the bench. Bug upgrade from relying on Landry Shamet as the sixth man.
Eubanks is a solid backup center and rim protector. Bates-Diop has been disappointing in preseason but had a great year with the Spurs last year. Jordan Goodwin looks like he may have been a steal in the Beal trade and plays strong point of attack defense.
We even have comic relief in the form of Bol Bol.
Eubanks isn't actually bad on the perimiter either. Surprisingly switchy. Thing about Drew I loved on the blazers was he plays hard as hell. If there's a pile of bodies, the Shaq of Troutdale is in it
