October 18, 2019 Chriss, the former No. 8 overall pick in 2016 by the Suns, made his mark as a training camp invite on Sept. 24. Draymond Green, never afraid to share his opinion, blamed the Suns, not Chriss, for the one-time top prospects stalled-put career.
Draymond Green on Marquese Chriss: “No one ever blames the situation, they blame the kid. No one ever blames these shitty franchises...No Phoenix writer is going to bash the Suns, but let’s be frank, when he was there, the organization was terrible.” pic.twitter.com/vw3t4NKxwY
