The Phoenix Suns made their first reported free agency move with former Blazers’ center Drew Eubanks, as the two sides agreed on a two-year deal, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The 6-foot-10 Eubanks played in 78 games for the Blazers last season and was a consistent option for them, averaging 6.6 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 1.3 APG, 1.3 BPG and 0.5 SPG on 64/39/66 splits.
Suns now have two very efficient centers.
Drew Eubanks shot 75% at the rim (Ayton 79%) and an excellent 54% in the short midrange (Ayton 48%), per @cleantheglass.
Eubanks' short roll profile is great. Comfy with the dribble, goes to floaters and uses either hand on the hook. pic.twitter.com/qY14o7RfSQ

The Suns did not end up making a qualifying offer for Jock Landale, so Eubanks could very well be his replacement.
