PHOENIX –The Valley Suns are near the end of its inaugural season in the G League, standing 12-10 and fifth in the Western Conference. The Suns’ roster is filled with talent, from two-way guards TyTy Washington Jr. and Collin Gillespie. However, a guard who has made his mark in the G League is the son of Hall of Famer John Stockton, David Stockton.

Like father like Son, Stockton is one of the best passers in G League history and has been a stable presence for the Suns to start their franchise. In 32 games this season, Stockton averages 13.7 points and 5.7 assists.
The Suns will need Stockton if the franchise wants to make a serious push on qualifying for the playoffs this season. Coming off a blowout loss to the South Bay Lakers, Stockton and the squad need to clear their mind when they return to Mullet Arena to take on the Rip City Remix on Tuesday.
