Description

In a stunning revelation, former Suns coach Earl Watson shared a missed opportunity for the Chicago Bulls. In 2016-17, the Bulls had a chance to acquire Devin Booker from the Suns in a trade for Jimmy Butler. However, Watson, a Booker advocate, refused the trade proposal, leading to the Suns keeping Booker and eventually making a Finals run. Meanwhile, the Bulls traded Butler to Minnesota, leaving fans to ponder the potential impact of a young Booker in Chicago.
