And he doesn't really hurt you defensively either with his 6'7 wingspan.
speaker_0HOST
18:38
And I also have to talk about if the Suns do give Duapreet that two-way contract, that most likely means that CJ Huntley is going to get waived.
speaker_0HOST
18:45
And I do feel like even if the Suns do waive CJ Huntley, he's going to end up being on the Valley Suns, just like how it happened last season as well.
speaker_0HOST
18:53
So I am happy about that as well, because I do think CJ Huntley is a great prospect to have.
speaker_0HOST
18:58
He definitely has flashes where he can show that he'll be a solid third string center in the NBA.
speaker_0HOST
19:02
So I'm happy that he's going to end up staying for the Suns if he does stay.
speaker_0HOST
18:07
Ooh, that's a good one.
speaker_0HOST
18:08
I did want CJ Huntley to get those minutes once we found out that Mark was hurt.
speaker_0HOST
18:12
But I'm not going to lie, Rodrigo.
speaker_0HOST
18:13
I think I would rather keep Duap Reeth over a CJ Huntley.
speaker_0HOST
18:17
I just feel like Duapreeth can really change how this Suns team plays offensively to the point where like it kind of makes the Suns more dangerous if they keep a Duapreeth.
speaker_0HOST
18:25
Like I know he's been disappointing in moments in preseason, but it definitely feels like if the Suns surrounded him with better defensive talent out there, like put him next to a Ryan Dunn, Jordan Goodwin, maybe he'd be better out there.
speaker_0HOST
12:43
Rodrigo said, I feel like CJ and Hunley should have bulked up and became our third string center.
speaker_0HOST
12:48
Yeah, I was kind of thinking that the Suns would just end up putting CJ Huntley as our third string center.
speaker_0HOST
12:53
But it looks like they really don't trust him because they didn't even play him in his first preseason game.
speaker_0HOST
12:58
So the two players that I was surprised really didn't play in his first preseason game is CJ Huntley and Kobe Brea.
speaker_0HOST
13:03
I'm more surprised about Kobe Brea just because, you know, the Suns did draft him and they did give him a two-way contract.
speaker_0HOST
13:09
So I was really surprised he didn't end up playing any minutes at all out there.
speaker_0HOST
6:09
Some other news that happened over the weekend.
speaker_0HOST
6:11
The Suns also waived CJ Huntley to convert Duopree's training camp deal to a two-way.
speaker_0HOST
6:15
And they waived Haywood Highsmith to keep the roster at 14.
speaker_0HOST
6:19
I would have liked the Suns to keep Highsmith.
speaker_0HOST
5:13
So Pat Spencer wouldn't really be bad as that third string point guard.
speaker_0HOST
5:17
But still, overall, I do wish that the Suns, if they end up waiving Bue, instead of just waiving him and letting him go to another team, I'm hoping the Suns end up just re-signing him to a two-way contract and just waiving like CJ Huntley to get him that spot.
speaker_0HOST
5:30
But I wouldn't be surprised if there's a team out there that would be willing to sign Bue because...
speaker_0HOST
5:34
Because in the limited time that we got to see Bue last season, he was pretty solid for the Suns.
speaker_0HOST
0:32
Like I know other Suns fans were talking about how the Suns should probably sign another guy to be their third string center.
speaker_0HOST
0:38
But for me, I was kind of just like, okay with the Suns going in and just basically playing small ball with either Ryan Dunn, Fleming or even Cole Pete and even CJ Huntley.
speaker_0HOST
0:48
Like CJ Huntley isn't the size of a five, but he does play like a five out there.
speaker_0HOST
0:53
So I was kind of like, oh, maybe the Suns can depend on CJ Huntley here and there to see if they have anything with this guy.
speaker_0HOST
0:59
And when I saw CJ Huntley with the Valley Suns, he's always been a pretty good player every time I've seen him.
speaker_0HOST
1:05
He provides a lot of energy out there.
speaker_0HOST
1:07
Like he doesn't really take plays off.
speaker_0HOST
1:09
That man is always running and always attacking that paint.
Rich RubinHOST
2:44
Former Gonzaga star, decent shooter, above average passer, capable defender.
Rich RubinHOST
2:49
Timmy gets the last two-way contract the Suns had to offer after waiving Kobe Brea and C.J. Huntley.
Rich RubinHOST
2:53
Clearly looking for more of an inside presence than a perimeter scorer.
Rich RubinHOST
2:57
He's been good in the G League in nine games with Brooklyn two years ago, 12.1 points and 7.2 rebounds.
Erik RubyHOST
1:08
And boy, are we going to have a nice fat show for you here.
Erik RubyHOST
1:12

Erik RubyHOST
2:12
Andy was in here early.
Erik RubyHOST
2:13
Of course, we've got the one, the only Boom Shakalaka, who has changed his profile picture to a Cardinal, which is very fitting because we're all in Cardinal hell together, except for they won.
Erik RubyHOST
2:26

Mike Scotto, big shout out to Mike Scotto, friend of the program, breaking the news earlier this morning that the Suns have waived former second round pick Kobe Brea in a subsequent move they also waived.
Erik RubyHOST
3:04
CJ Huntley converted to a brief to a two-way contract and signed it drew Timmy to a two-way contract all while doing this after releasing Haywood Highsmith as well so the Suns have completely reshifted the end of the roster it looks like Jamari Bouye is the last really big roster spot with an open full-time roster spot and then the three two-way guys Pat Spencer do a brief Andrew Timmy.
Erik RubyHOST
3:30
Yeah, man.
Rich RubinHOST
4:10
We're gonna see, but he looked pretty good in the preseason.
Rich RubinHOST
4:13
Suns did finally waive CJ Huntley.
Rich RubinHOST
4:15
I mentioned that yesterday.
Rich RubinHOST
4:16
There was some confusion after the mention that they were going to keep Huntley and waive Kobe Brea.
Gil McGregorHOST
2:27
And along with Haywood Highsmith getting waved, Kennedy Chandler and Phillip Wheeler also were waved.
Gil McGregorHOST
2:32
Today, we find out that CJ Huntley and Kobe Brea were both waved.
Gil McGregorHOST
2:38
In addition to that, we saw Dwight Reath get his contract converted to a two-way contract.
Gil McGregorHOST
2:44
So I'm at six right now.
Gil McGregorHOST
3:55
I think that they're trying to... be groundbreaking a little bit with that.
Gil McGregorHOST
3:59
Because, and you know me, I'm all about it, but two-year two-way guys are 30 years old.
Gil McGregorHOST
4:05
We've always thought that the two-way contract is meant for this up-and-comer or a fringe NBA guy, a guy who you took in the second round like Kobe Brea was, or an undrafted guy like CJ Huntley was, that you're trying to develop into eventually becoming someone that fills the void that you have on this team.
Gil McGregorHOST
4:26
Well, to a eligibility, you have to have three or fewer years of NBA service.
