According to a report from Jon Chepkevich of DraftExpress, former MSU basketball guard Tyson Walker will be joining the Phoenix Suns’ NBA summer league team.
The Suns are owned by another Spartan, Mat Ishbia, and now he will give an opportunity to a great Michigan State player.
Summer league should be a good place for Walker to showcase his particular skills (he will score a lot of points) and could help him land a two-way deal. Walker’s size is working against him, but he was one of the best pure scorers in college last year.
Michigan State’s Tyson Walker has agreed to join the Phoenix Suns for NBA Summer League, I’m told.
18.4 PTS, 2.9 REB, 2.8 AST, 1.9 STL en route to 2nd Team All-B1G honors.
Dynamic 6’0 ½" initiator w/ a shifty handle and deadly pull-up game — tactician punishing drop coverages.
