3. Kevin Johnson – Jaime Lannister
Kevin Johnson is one of the most popular Suns figures of all-time. This is due to his being one of the most talented and charming players Phoenix sports has ever had. He was good on both the offensive and defensive ends of the court and he could both score and create plays for his teammates. The Suns had some of their greatest successes the franchise has ever seen with K.J. as our point.
However, K.J. struggled with injuries for much of his career, many of them unknown for some time. He played extremely well through them for several years, but they caught up to him eventually, perhaps causing him to retire somewhat early. As great as he was, fans will always wonder how great he could have been without those injuries. After his NBA career, K.J. entered politics, becoming Mayor of his hometown Sacramento. He was unfortunately also involved in some sexual assault controversies (at least one of which stems from his playing days). Even still, he remains popular among Valley of the Suns fans.
Jaime Lannister is also a talented and charming figure who has stolen the hearts of Game of Thrones fans. As a member of the Kingsguard and renowned tourney knight, he is well known for his fighting prowess. However, his fighting career ended early after his Bolton captors cut off his right hand. Now, like K.J., he focuses on his leadership and even dabbles in politics. Also like K.J., Jaime, or “The Kingslayer,” is not without his controversy. Not only did he kill the Mad King, whom he swore to protect, but his relationship with his sister, Cersei, is very sketchy.
