The Phoenix Suns are banking on internal growth, with Collin Gillespie emerging as a cornerstone of that plan. After setting a franchise record for three-pointers in his first full season and stepping up as a starter when Jalen Green was injured, Gillespie locked in a four-year, $48M deal — signaling the team’s belief in his ceiling. At 27, he’s already a solid NBA guard: efficient, versatile, ball-safe, and capable of big plays on the road. His game mirrors rising stars like Brunson and Pritchard — players who thrived when given more opportunity. To keep climbing, Gillespie must refine his shooting efficiency, attack the rim more often, and adapt to playing alongside improving teammates like Khaman Maluach. With strong fundamentals and defensive grit, he’s poised for another leap — if he can just dial up his aggression and free throw attempts.
