Strengths

Upon coming to the Suns, Bullock was labeled as a “3-and-D” type player, or in layman terms, a player who can shoot the three and defend at a high level.

In four games with the Jam, he lived up to his sharp-shooting reputation, shooting 46.2 percent from behind the arc. With a stroke that is as pure as anyone on the Suns, for Bullock, it’s now about showing what he can do on the NBA level.

In the Suns’ high octane offense, Bullock may prove to be an extremely valuable piece next season, as he is able to spread the floor and open up room to work for Eric Bledsoe and Brandon Knight.

On defense is where the guard may be able to distinguish himself the most. Bullock is extremely fluid in his movement, allowing him to guard three different positions. This past season at the NBA level, his opponents shot 7.3 percent worse than their normal percentage when being guarding by Bullock, per NBA.com.
