Phoenix Suns go need to reshape dia frontcourt rotation afta starting centre Mark Williams do surgery to fix torn labrum. Dem dey expect am to miss plenti months for di season wey dey come, as di franchise go dey without im regular starter for long time.

Di absence don give second-year centre Khaman Maluach one big chance. E no get plenty playing time for im rookie campaign, but di work wey e do during 2026 Summer League show say e dey improve steady.

Maluach average 19.5 points per game for Las Vegas while e dey shoot 40.0% from three-point range and e pull down 12.8 rebounds every night. That kind production on di glass fit really valuable for Phoenix.

Suns dey projected to struggle to control di boards, and whether Maluach fit consistently grab rebounds fit decide if e fit hold di starting centre position while Williams dey recover.
