Phoenix Suns: 5 things that stand out going into final scrimmage game
4. What about Elie Okobo?
It doesn’t entice as many chill bumps as Aron Baynes, but another Phoenix Suns player will likely make his bubble debut. Elie Okobo joined the team late due to personal reasons, and we have yet to see him suit up.
He did, however, practice with the team on Monday, so there is a chance we will see him on Tuesday.
Okobo would be roughly the 12th backup point guard on the team and undoubtedly join Jevon Carter, Ty Jerome, and Cameron Payne on the court at the same time for several minutes.
I kid, but trying to figure out how to get all of these guys minutes is going to be a challenge, and likely detrimental to the Suns’ chances of winning, especially if Baynes doesn’t play and Dario Saric sits out after twisting his ankle against the Celtics.
