A few days ago, the Phoenix Suns traded Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the No. 10 overall pick and five second round draft picks in future years.
With the No. 10 overall pick, the Suns drafted Khaman Maluach out of Duke.
Maluach is listed at 7 feet two inches tall and 250 pounds. In his one year at Duke, he averaged 8.6 points per game, 6.6 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks.
The Suns incomplete roster is currently loaded with guards, so a defensive minded center like Malauch feels like a smart move. Alongside Ryan Dunn and Oso Ighodaro, who were drafted last year, the Suns are starting to build a solid young core.
