Walter Davis. Sweet D. The player with the silky smooth stroke was also the last player selected by the Suns at the #5 overall spot when he was taken in 1977. It was also the only time the Suns have picked fifth in their draft history. Which means the Suns have a proven track record of hitting on the #5 pick! That propitiates well for tomorrow tonight... barring an unlikely trade to move from the spot.
Walter Davis was my first favorite Sun. Coincidentally, whomever the Suns pick at #5 tomorrow will be my new favorite Sun. Eerie.
Listen in as professional scout Kris Habbas and (insert defamatory remark here) I break it on down before the festivities. And let's all hope the Suns get their new Prince Charming... instead of watching their shiny new player turn into a pumpkin.
