The best 3-on-3 teams from the Phoenix Suns for each Olympic year
2020
Devin Booker
Kelly Oubre
Deandre Ayton
We have finally caught up to the present, where the biggest question is whether or not to include Ricky Rubio on this hypothetical 3-on-3 team.
Rubio has arguably been the most valuable player on the Suns this season. However, what makes this Olympic veteran so good is his ability to orchestrate an offense; a traditional 5-on-5 offense, that is.

To be honest, I’m not sure his skill set translates well to a 3-on-3 setting, compared to Kelly Oubre, Jr. who is quicker, more athletic, and a better shooter.
Booker could run the point (as much of a point position as there is in 3-on-3) and Ayton could dominate under the goal. Of course, he probably would settle for many fadeaway jumpers instead, but we should all come to the realization that will probably never change.
I actually really like this trio for 3-on-3. They can all score in space and are all-around dynamic playmakers, exactly what it makes a good team.
