Bazley had 16 points, team-high nine rebounds, two assists and two blocks off the bench in Phoenix Suns' loss to Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday.
“Just be able to play and rep out all the stuff that I’m learning. There’s been a lot of new stuff that’s been processing in my head," Bazley told The Republic in the postgame.
The Suns have been resting four of their starters — Kevin Durant , Devin Booker, Chris Paul and Deandre Ayton — since Friday in their loss to the L.A. Lakers. As for the Clippers, Sunday's game was more meaningful to them as they were in a tight race with the Golden State Warriors and New Orleans Pelicans for the West's fifth seed., which turned out to be the Suns-Clippers first round playoff matchup preview that many fans and NBA media pundits anticipated for Sunday's game.
Bazley brings length in his sinewy physique, he's the most athletic and can run the floor well as a tweener able to play both small and power forward positions, decent ball-handling and outside shooting skills as a lefty, a solid defender as a shotblocker, and gets most of his points from rim pressure in the halfcourt and in transition.
"The dunk he had in the first half, and he had another one in the second half because he can get from the 3-point line to the rim in two dribbles, sometimes one, and he can get there with force. So that’s something that not everybody can do.”
