2. Phoenix Suns (Via Golden State) – LaMelo Ball, G

The Phoenix Suns would have to fall in love with a top prospect in order to warrant trading with the Warriors. If they become enamored with anyone, it would most likely be LaMelo Ball.

Phoenix saw how effective Devin Booker can be with a playmaking point guard setting him up. Playing off-ball opened up easier scoring opportunities for Booker as he had the best season of his career yet.

Ball would take this to another level as a naturally gifted passer. The Suns would have the point guard of their future with Ball running the show. His size and length make him an interesting pairing alongside Booker.

Much like Edwards, Ball will have to improve as a shooter and defender. However, the full package for Ball would make him a superstar. This seems like a reasonable risk for the Suns to take.
