The Suns signed the son of former MLB major leaguer Daryl Strawberry to a two-year contract that includes a guaranteed first season and a second-year team option.
Strawberry, Phoenix's second-round pick (No.59 overall) in June's draft, will receive the rookie minimum salary of $427,163 this season.
Strawberry, a 6-foot-5 combo guard who played at Maryland, graded out as one of the top athletes and defenders in the draft. He handled the point guard spot well at NBA Summer League, averaging a league-best 6.4 assists.
