The Phoenix Suns’ G League affiliate, Northern Arizona Suns, announced its 15-man training camp roster for the 2018-19 season on Sunday. The team is set to start training camp on Monday in Prescott Valley.

The team features five returning players, three players drafted by the Suns, four local tryout players and one two-way player. Two players on the roster were acquired in trades.

Suns forward Derek Cooke Jr. played all 50 games for the NAZ Suns in the 2016-17 season. Joining him in their second season are guard Tyrell Corbin, forwards Peter Jok and Tidjan Keita, and center Eric Stuteville. Cooke most recently played for the Perth Wildcats in the National Basketball League.

The Suns drafted four players in the 2018 NBA G League Draft on Saturday and and traded a pick for guard Daxter Miles Jr., who was selected No. 11 overall by the Iowa Wolves. First-round pick in Aaron Epps and second-round picks A.J. Mosby and LaQuinton Ross will be on the roster for training camp. The Suns also acquired forward Shaquille Thomas recently in a trade.

Anthony Lefeau, Wayne McCullough, Retin Obasohan and James Pegues made the training camp roster as local tryout players. George King is under contract with the Phoenix Suns as two-way player.
