5. Give Reggie Bullock A Chance

Since acquiring him from the Los Angeles Clippers in mid-January, the Suns have played Reggie Bullock in seven games for a grand total of 26 minutes. For a team chasing a playoff spot, playing an unpolished wing on a team full of wings made sense. But now that the Suns have virtually no shot at making the postseason, it’s time to see what he has to offer.

At age 24, Bullock hasn’t found an NBA environment suitable for his game yet. He barely played with the Clippers, but he was shooting 38.5 percent from three-point range in Los Angeles this season. Why not give him a chance with the season winding down?

Bullock has only made one of his five field goals with the Suns. He’s only played more than three minutes in a game one time. But since he’s a 3-and-D prospect who’s on the books next year for only $1.2 million (with a $2.2 million team option in 2016-17), there’s never been a better time to get Bullock some minutes.
