Shannon Brown signed a one-year deal with the Suns on Saturday.
Jared Dudley is projected to be the starting shooting guard as of now, but we wouldn't be surprised if Brown applies serious pressure. Grant Hill has generally guarded opposing teams' shooting guards at a high level, but expecting him to keep up with the game's quicker foes at his age in a condensed season is questionable. Dudley's foot-speed is even worse, and next to Steve Nash, Brown's defense could be necessary. If Brown can nab 30+ minutes, he'll be worth a look at the end of drafts.
