Suns’ Dillon Brooks finally gets the media recognition he deserves

ESPN has ranked Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks at number 76 in its top 100 players list ahead of the 2026-27 NBA season. This ranking marks an improvement for Brooks, who was not featured on the list a year ago. The writer argues that the ranking is still too low given Brooks' contributions to the team.

During the previous season, Brooks averaged a career-high 20.2 points per night and served as a key co-star alongside Devin Booker. The Suns recently extended Brooks' contract to secure his role for the coming years. His defensive capabilities will be tested alongside new team addition Miles Bridges.
