This is an amazing day. Booker/JJ on the wing is going to be fun for years.

Did the Suns just draft the closest thing to Jimmy Butler?

Colour me pumped.

Have heard/seen some interesting comps - from WAY too high (Kawhi) to way too low (Corey Brewer...my own take on his potential floor...prove me wrong!). Marion, Kirilenko, Draymond, KG. Quite a few athletes in that bunch.

STOKED with the pick - I was watching some vids on him last night hoping he'd slip:

Did this kid just become my favourite Sun?

Josh Jackson is going to be amazing. Everything he does is deliberate, he attacks relentlessly, he has a high motor. He just doesn't stop moving. If he can tweak his shot mechanics a bit and fixes that jumper, watch out.

Bucher said Jackson is the best player in the draft, have to agree with him - any time GOOD front offices like the Spurs are trying to jump up significantly to get a player, you know he's good.

I really love what we're building. This team isn't going to be backing down to anyone. We'll probably lead the league in techs too but so be it.

I love the pick. He was the BPA and the best fit.

With him on the roster we improve automatically a few areas: better defense, more versatility and toughness.

Love the attitude and toughness he'll bring. Hope he gets with a good shooting coach because if can knock it down from deep the sky is the limit for this dude.

Jackson is going to compliment Booker's game so nicely. Fits like a glove. I have a feeling he'll be an All-star at some point. The draft couldn't have ended up any better for the Suns.

I like the pick, especially with this roster, next to Booker right and also in conjunction with Bender in a few years, they can switch between 3 and 4 seamlessly, before I moved to AZ I lived in KS and am a huge KU fan, I watched over 20 ku games this season Jackson is going to be a stud, he is more the Iggy or Marion type then say a Paul George but he is going to be a really really good 2 way player.

Hi from a Celts fan, I think Josh Jackson is a good one, he seem like that guy that want it more, him and Booker will be fun to watch together

Two GRIT players in Quese and JJ, both budding stars I predict.

JJ is very dynamic in the open court. Transition will be fun!! I think his handle in the open court is often overlooked.
