Jordan Goodwin, another good surprise for the Suns
After ten days of regular season, we thought the Suns were heading into another tough season with one win in five matches. Except that since then the team has found the right formula and on this night, against SpursDevin Booker’s partners registered their 10th win in twelve meetings!
Well installed in Top 6 in the WestPhoenix has not yet been spared injuries, but Jordan Ott can count on the emergence of a “role player” regardless Collin Gillespiealso exists Jordan Goodwin.
Already with the franchise in the past, the former Wizards and Lakers guard started the game next to Devin Booker and recorded a nice double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds. From a height of 1m88!
“We let him do anything with his ‘super power’. Even if it wasn’t included in our system, we have to let him do what he really excels at.”, explains Jordan Ott about Jordan Goodwin and his general approach to all his players.
“Super Power”, “Gift”…
This “super power” is also the energy that allows him to defend well against De’Aaron Fox, but also to throw himself into the fight for rejection among “big men”.
“Honestly, I don’t know what it is, but he has a gift for (knowing where) the ball is going to land.”notes Devin Booker on Jordan Goodwin. “He’s always in the right place at the right time. He defends at a high level, he brings the energy we need. He works at full speed for us.”
After the win against the Wolves, on a basket by Colin Gillespie, explained Jordan Goodwin that being underestimated by the media has been the team’s driving force this season. “We’re just trying to prove things to each other. We feel like the league doesn’t respect us a little bit. I don’t think we get the respect that we deserve. So we’re going to look for it ourselves. That’s our state of mind. We know everybody’s underestimating us. So we’re just trying to prove things to ourselves, to keep going. To keep putting games together.
