Training Camp Roster Additions 

Post#1 » by Barkley6 » Sat Sep 27, 2014 8:57 pm

Was announced a couple of days ago the Suns added Earl Barron (who we already know), Joe Jackson, Casey Prather and Jamil Wilson.

Wanted to know if anyone knew anything about these last 3 dudes. Obviously, none of them will make the team, but I wanted to know maybe if anyone had an idea of what the front office saw in these guys as our choices for camp bodies.

Thanks!

Joe Jackson: 5'6" point guard from North Carolina. Averaged 28 points per game in college. Last played competitive soccer.

Casey Prather: 7'3" Center from UNLV. Russian born. Was acquitted of double murder in 2009. Very tough interior presence. Brother owns a ranch and gun range in Georgia and has a youtube channel.

Jamil Wilson: 6'9" small forward from Texas Tech. Known for his post up game. Was a finalist in "Hells Kitchen" two years ago as he worked as a chef in the college off season.

Casey Prather is a 6'5" swingman out of Fla. Not a 7'3" Russian from UNLV who was acquitted of a double murder in 2009.

Jamil Wilson will make the team. That is my guess.

Doubt it. That means Randolph would get cut (and his guaranteed contract with it).
Maybe there's another trade in the works that packages multiple Suns for a single player opening roster spots, the same way Gortat/Brown/Marshall/Lee where shipped out for Okafor and a 1st (Ennis) last year.

Well, Shavlik Randolph is the lowest ranked player in NBA 2K15...so it could happen.

Return to Phoenix Suns
