LOCKED ON SUNS 12/6/17: Lots of prospect and adductor muscle talk: On today's nearly hour-long episode of Locked On Suns, Evan and Brendon are joined by Empire of the Suns' Kellan Olson to discuss all the latest Suns news. All three of us were at last night's Valley of the Sun Shootout, which saw two likely top 10 picks, Deandre Ayton and Robert Williams, square off. We spent the first half of the podcast discussing that. Also, we took a deep dive into how we think the Suns will fare over their next 10 games, all likely without Devin Booker after he injured his adductor muscle. We also quickly discussed Woj breaking the news of Mike James signing a new contract before we went on to record. Trade Monroe or Chandler? Waive DJJ? Lots of ground was covered from all angles, so tune in to this one! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices by Locked On Suns - Daily Podcast On The Phoenix Suns
