Thaddeus Young revealed that he and the Phoenix Suns had discussions before he joined the team regarding the specific lineups and plays he might feature in. Therefore, he isn’t troubled by the irregularity of his minutes on the court.
“I’m battle tested. I’m prepared to not play a whole bunch of games just like I did and go in and walk right in and fit like a glove. For me, it’s never going to be about the minute aspect of it,” Young said.
“Yeah, I would love to play a lot of minutes. I would love to continue to be able to play at such a high level, but at the end of the day, whatever coaches, staff and the team needs me to do, I’m going to do it.”
