A Historic Night For The Phoenix Suns

The 2018 NBA Draft: A Look Back

A historic night for the Phoenix Suns

The 2018 NBA Draft was held on June 21, 2018 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. National Basketball Association (NBA) teams took turns selecting 60 players, 57 of whom played in the NBA. The first overall pick was Deandre Ayton, who has since played for the Phoenix Suns and the Indiana Pacers.

The Suns' big night

The Phoenix Suns had a big night at the 2018 NBA Draft. They won the draft lottery, giving them the first overall pick. They also had the fourth overall pick, which they used to select Mikal Bridges. The Suns' two first-round picks were widely considered to be two of the best players in the draft. Ayton has been a solid player for the Suns, averaging 16.3 points and 10.5 rebounds per game over his first four seasons in the NBA. Bridges has also been a valuable contributor, averaging 10.3 points and 4.3 rebounds per game over his first four seasons. The Suns' success in the 2018 NBA Draft helped them to turn things around after a few down seasons. They have made the playoffs in each of the past two seasons, and they are currently one of the top teams in the Western Conference.
