The Suns will address a glaring need in the frontcourt with the addition of Williams as they bring in another former Hornets center. Khaman Maluach went 10th in the draft to the Rockets, who are expected to send him to the Suns by way of the Kevin Durant trade. Phoenix will have Williams, Maluach and Nick Richards at center if no additional moves are made, meaning one of the bigs will be the odd man out in the rotation.

While the 6-foot-11 Huntley may not have been on most draft radars, he performed well during the pre-draft process. During his final season at Appalachian State, he averaged 15.7 points and eight rebounds per game, ranking within the top-10 in the Sun Belt in both statistical categories. Huntley will likely spend most of his time in the G League, especially with Phoenix adding Mark Williams and Khaman Maluach over the last two days.

This was an aggressive 10-minute stretch from the Suns. Reports from Charania indicate that Phoenix is leaning towards Rasheer Fleming with this pick, and he would be an incredible three-and-D addition for them after he slid to round two. They also still have the 41st pick, which they will likely use to address the point guard position. Kam Jones, Tyrese Proctor and Javon Small would all be interesting options.

Drummond played well in a reserve role behind Joel Embiid in 2024-25, and rather than test the free agent market, he’ll return to the Sixers for another season with a similar role. Fantasy managers can expect solid numbers when Drummond is thrust into the starting lineup, but he’s not typically worth utilizing when Embiid is healthy.

Peavy spent the first four seasons of his college career in the Big 12, playing one season at Texas Tech and three at TCU, before transferring to Georgetown for his fifth year. And he exploded as a scorer with the Hoyas, averaging 17.2 points, 5.8 rebounds. 3.6 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 37 minutes per game. Shooting 48.1 percent from the field and 65.9 percent from the foul line, Peavy led the Big East in steals and earned all-conference honors. The defensive ability and athletic tools make him an intriguing 3-and-D prospect, but Peavy will have to show that he can sustain the perimeter shooting he displayed at Georgetown. New Orleans pushed their chips in with their moves in recent days, and Peavy should be a solid depth piece for them immediately, though there isn’t a clear path to minutes.

With Toronto being one of the teams mentioned as a potential destination for Suns forward Kevin Durant, Poeltl’s name came up as part of a possible trade package. However, SportsNet Canada’s Michael Grange reported Friday evening that the Raptors are not interested in including Poeltl in a trade for KD. NBA insider Marc Stein confirmed Grange’s report and added that the Raptors and Poeltl have “mutual interest” in working out a contract extension. While there is a feeling around the league that Toronto is open to trading down ahead of Wednesday’s draft, as they hold the ninth overall pick, there’s no desire to move on from their starting center.
