The Phoenix Suns hit the lottery today literally when the ping balls bounced the right way and they were handed the Number 1 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. The order for teams selecting is:
2018 NBA DRAFT ORDER
Phoenix Suns
Sacramento Kings
Atlanta Hawks
Memphis Grizzlies
Dallas Mavericks
Orlando Magic
Chicago Bulls
Cleveland Cavaliers (Nets)
New York Knicks
Philadelphia 76ers (via Lakers)
Phoenix decision on who to take at number 1 appears to be a battle in two between 7 foot 1 Arizona big man Deandre Ayton and Slovenian point forward Luca Doncic. The decision becomes very interesting when delving a bit deeper in to the Suns organisation and seeing that the owner is a former Arizona graduate the same school as Ayton and the newly hired coach is Doncics coach on the Slovenian National team. It looks a battle between coach and owner here and we all know who normally wins those battles, either way both players are good fits in this young team. I will look further in to the likely number 1 and top 10 picks in later posts.
I hope you all enjoyed my post, please go ahead and throw an upvote and comment my way, would love to hear from you all.
Sorry to be picky, but your pick numbers seem to be slightly off mate.

Suns might have first pick but it doesn't seem like they have any real plan for the future. Maybe they are happy to just play and have no interest in a ring
