Tyson Walker Joins Phoenix Suns for NBA Breakthrough
In the latest NBA Draft, there were no Michigan State Spartans picked, which was not unexpected. Yet, the true surprise occurred when both Tyson Walker and Malik Hall did not secure undrafted free-agent contracts.
Tyson Walker’s Chance with the Suns
On Sunday, Tyson Walker finally received his chance to play in the NBA. Jon Chepkevich announced that the Phoenix Suns have agreed to include Walker on their Summer League roster.
While participating in the Summer League doesn’t secure Walker a place on the Suns’ primary lineup, it does indicate the team’s attention. This opportunity could be exactly what he requires. If he delivers a strong performance, the Suns might consider signing him as an undrafted free agent. He had the option to either become a part of their team or, more probably, their G-League partner.
Exposure to NBA Scouts
The Summer League gives Walker the chance to display his skills to scouts from every NBA team. Despite the Suns not signing him, there could be interest from other teams.
The NBA Summer League commences on July 12 and concludes on July 22. During this short opportunity for Walker to showcase his skills, the Suns will have numerous games scheduled, providing him with ample opportunities to make an impression.
Spartan Nation is wishing for Walker to succeed and land a spot on an NBA team. Even though he is a little small, his offensive skills are unquestionable. A lot of people think he might make it onto an NBA or G-League team.
Tyson Walker’s path to the NBA starts at the Summer League. His performance will be vital at this time. Given his abilities and perseverance, he has a genuine opportunity to secure a spot on an NBA team’s lineup.
