Nov 28, 2016, 4:58 PM

Phoenix Suns head coach Earl Watson and forward P.J. Tucker revealed the design for a new playground at Guadalupe Barrio Nuevo on Monday.

In partnership with KaBOOM! and Chicanos Por La Causa, the Suns will build the playground in order to provide a safe haven for youth in the Guadalupe Barrio Nuevo community. Watson and Tucker each made significant financial contributions in order to help fund the project.

Kids in attendance had the opportunity to play games with Watson and Tucker prior to the blueprint reveal. The playground is scheduled to be built on Dec. 12, with the help of Suns players, team employees and community volunteers.
