Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Now that we got that out of the way, Lillard is in Phoenix for his annual camp where a bunch of young hoopers mainly in high school come and compete while getting to learn more about the game from one of the NBA’s best.
While talking to reporters, Lillard was asked about the Bradley Beal trade and the new-look Suns and it’s safe to say Lillard likes what he sees from the ball club.

Beal was traded back in June a couple of weeks after the NBA finals to the Suns in exchange for Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, and future picks.
With Beal on the team to play with Devin Booker and Kevin Durant, a lot of people believe that the Suns are the top 4 NBA Finals favorites for this upcoming season.
The Suns have been one of the league’s best teams over the past three seasons. They have made a finals appearance as well as 3 straight trips to the playoffs and getting to the second round or higher.
New owner Mat Ishbia believes the move for Bradley Beal as well as getting other bench role players to bolster their team, will make for an exciting Suns season.

With Lillard thinking this team is a big three and a team that should be fun to watch, it’s only safe to say health and chemistry is the only thing standing in their way of creating something special this season.
