Jusuf Nurkic - Perfect from charity stripe Nurkic posted 10 points (1-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists and a steal across 16 minutes in Tuesday's 115-107 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact While Nurkic's night didn't look impressive on paper, he successfully defended one of the league's best players. The former Portland Trail Blazer was all over Nikola Jokic, providing the kind of defensive mettle needed inside after the departure of Deandre Ayton, who took Nurkic's place in Rip City. Nurkic is slated to be the team's starting center, but newcomer Bol Bol is already a crowd favorite and will hear his name chanted often.
OCTOBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Saben Lee - Fills in with nine assists Lee tallied 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), nien assists and two rebounds across 32 minutes in Tuesday's 115-107 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact Bradley Beal and Devin Booker took a seat Tuesday, giving Lee a chance to show his stuff as the team's floor manager. Lee will have to contend with newcomers Eric Gordon and Grayson Allen for minutes in the second unit, and while a spot on the team is likely, a trip to the G League may be a possibility based on the team's backcourt depth.
OCTOBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Okogie - Leads team with 17 points Okogie recorded 17 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocked shots across 24 minutes in Tuesday's 115-107 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact Okogie's night will likely be representative of his expected output during the season, as the Suns will depend on his defensive skills. He's projected to begin the season with the first unit, but newcomers Nassir Little and Keita Bates-Diop will also compete for time at the wing. Okogie could emerge as a DPOY nominee in 2024 if he gets starter's minutes.
