Although from the current situation, the Phoenix Suns have stagnated in the renewal of the core Ayton of the team, but rationally speaking, after successfully retaining Paul in the offseason and introducing elite players such as McGee + Shamet + Payton, the strength and depth of the Suns' lineup have been improved by the naked eye!
However, for the Suns, who have ambitious goals in the new season, in the face of the unclear playoff prospects in the West and the undercurrent of the championship situation, the Suns, who have just tasted the sweetness on the finals stage, the obstacles and challenges to be faced in the new season should indeed not be underestimated.
In addition, considering that there is still some time before the mid-season and the trade deadline, the work of the Suns management in the new season aiming to compete for the championship is obviously not completely conclusive!
In this regard, the US media "NBA Analysis" has also recently re-analyzed and evaluated the Suns' reinforcement and reinforcement plans, as well as the team's management's desire to bring more helpers to the core combination of Paul + Booker + Ayton, improve the strength of the lineup, and fully prepare for the new season.
And after combining the prospects and situation in the current trading market, it is believed that Magic forward Jonathan Isaac, who is in the early stages of reconstruction, may be a noteworthy reinforcement for the Suns!
With the emergence of this idea, journalist Greg Patuto also gave his own opinions and suggestions, and also provided advice for the Suns to introduce Isaac, boldly providing a transaction plan for reference.
Specifically: The Suns can send Cameron Johnson + Dario Sharich + Jaylen Smith + 2024 first-round picks to try to exchange for the Magic's Jonathan Isaac!
Despite missing a full year last season due to injury, After averaging 11.9 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.6 steals, 2.3 blocks per game in 19-20, and a 34 percent three-point shooting percentage of the season, Isaac got a four-year, nearly $70 million contract.
However, with the team officially entering the reconstruction, the strong rise of players such as Wendel Carter + Wagner Jr. + Bamba, and Isaac, who has yet to be studied after returning from injury, there seems to be a lot of variables and uncertainties in the status and future of the Magic team!
For the Suns, although it cannot be ignored in terms of injury hazards, as a young rising star who is only 24 years old and is still in the ascending stage of his career, Isaac, who has great cultivation value and development ceiling, there is indeed something worth the Suns to bet on.
In the Suns' lineup system, the height of 2 meters 11 arm span reaches 2 meters 17, both excellent athleticism and movement speed, and at the same time, Isaac can be inside and out, and the firepower and vitality that can be injected into the team's forward position are obviously not to be underestimated!
Even at the side of Paul Booker + Ayton, as well as under head coach Monty Williams, the role and influence of the young Isaac on the game will be infinitely magnified.
For the Magic, who are in the process of employing people, 25-year-old Cameron Johnson, who has proved his ability to become a good 3D player with practical actions last season, can be imagined as an improvement and improvement to both ends of the team's attack and defense.
Add to that a potential interior jaylen Smith, who is only 21 years old, to add defensive and immediate combat prowess to the team, and it seems like an option worth considering!
As for Saric, considering that he also has injuries and season attendance, the Suns have taken advantage of this to add a potentially valuable first-round draft pick, which is obviously no reason for the Magic team at this stage to refuse.
Finally, as a fan, are you optimistic that the Suns will use the above deal plan to poach the potential of the Magic's forward Isaac? Or, what are your better adjustments and suggestions for this transaction plan? Feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments section!
