Phoenix Suns rookie Ty Jerome is headed back to the Valley once again.
The Suns announced Saturday night that Jerome was recalled from the team’s G League affiliate, the Northern Arizona Suns.
Jerome played for the NAZ Suns on Saturday against the Sioux Falls Skyforce where the Suns lost 129-94. He recorded 18 points on 6-of-8 shooting, including 2-of-2 on three-point attempts. Jerome tallied 19 minutes of play.
The Suns previously assigned Jerome to NAZ on Friday after Phoenix recalled him earlier in the week.
Jerome was selected 24th overall in the first round of the 2019 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers and was later traded to the Boston Celtics.
He, along with Aron Baynes, was then traded from Boston to Phoenix for the Milwaukee Bucks’ 2020 first-round pick.
