PHOENIX — The Phoenix Suns had a chance to select a player who could define the next era of the franchise on draft night in 2018. According to former Suns coach Igor Kokoskov, there wasn’t much debate about who they wanted that player to be.
The decision to select Deandre Ayton over Luka Doncic with the number one pick in the 2018 NBA Draft still remains one of the league’s biggest what-if decisions.
The Mavericks might be far from being contenders at this point, but they have a very bright future as a franchise with Flagg leading the way as their new franchise player.
Igor Kokoskov, the veteran Serbian assistant coach who has worked with over 11 NBA teams and won a championship with the Pistons in 2004, recently sat down for a tell-all interview.
Who is the X factor for every NBA player this season? We’re not talking about the go-to guy, like Nikola Jokic or Steph Curry. It could be a big-name player, an all-star, or a bench player, but they are the pivot point for their team.
