Dillon: Joining the Suns is destined. I almost came to the Suns when I was playing for the Grizzlies.

NBA Summer League is in Las Vegas, and Dillon Brooks, a wing star who just joined the Phoenix Suns, also came to Las Vegas to watch the game. Dillon also accepted an interview with reporters during the game.
In the interview, Dillon also talked about the process of joining the Suns. He even said that as early as when he was still playing for the Memphis Grizzlies, I had a feeling that joining the Suns was a destined thing. Dillon said in an interview: I think this may have been destined, even when I was still playing in Memphis, the transaction was only one step away from being completed, but in the end, due to communication misunderstandings, the transaction was not finally completed. However, it is also because of the transaction that was not realized this time, which makes me always look forward to joining the Suns. Now that such a transaction has been successfully completed, I can finally have the opportunity to join the Suns. Then, Dillon talked about the difference between the Suns and the Rockets. He continued: The Suns have more offensive space, and such a way of playing will create more three-pointers. Our current tactical philosophy is indeed different from that of the Rockets era. I hope that when I adapt to the new system, I can not only improve my hit rate, but also maintain consistent and efficient performance.
In the NBA regular season last season, Dillon played 75 games in 82 games, averaging 31.8 minutes per game, averaging 14 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1 turnover and 3.2 fouls. He shot 42.9%, three-point shooting percentage 39.7%, and free throw shooting percentage 81.8%. In the playoffs, Dillon played 7 games in total, with averaging 29.4 minutes per game, averaging 12.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.3 blocks, and 1.3 turnovers and 3.9 fouls. His shooting percentage was 44.4%, a three-point shooting percentage of 34.5%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 83.3%.
In a previous deal, the Rockets packaged Dillon and Jalen Green's 10th first round picks and the next five second round picks to the Suns, and exchanged them for Kevin Durant from the Suns. Dillon is a very important bargaining chip in this deal. Considering Green's terrible state during the playoffs, Dillon is relatively a very stable player. His contract is very high-quality. Whether the Suns leave him for their own use or continue trading, it is a good choice. Sending him away may also bring some future bargaining chips to the Suns. If the sun wants to enter reconstruction, this may also be a good choice. It seems that Dillon is still very excited about joining the Sun, but the actual situation is that we don’t know what choices the Sun will make next. Dillon still looks like he is hoping to continue playing with the Sun, but will the Sun really keep him and arrange him as a good partner for Devin Booker and Green?
