Phoenix Suns add Ralph Sampson and Sean Rooks to staff

The Suns got bigger Thursday.

They added two centers: one 7-foot-4, the other 6-foot-10. Now while the two will see time on the court, neither will suit up in uniform.

The Suns announced officially the additions of Ralph Sampson and Sean Rooks to the team’s Player Development Department.

Sampson, recently inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, will serve as the department’s assistant coordinator under coordinator Lindsey Hunter. Rooks, who was a UA Wildcat from 1988-1992, will join the department in a supporting role.

Both have been with the team since the start of camp but their roles had not yet been defined.
