-Robert Williams: An incredibly injury-prone player, but he's healthy again and playing great again. Makes $11m.
-Walker Kessler: Making less than $3m so the Suns could trade a smaller salary and not have to worry about compensating a team for taking on Nurkic's bad contract. Kessler has rebounded after a bad year and is doing pretty well, but is unclear as a long term fit in Utah and trading him would allow the Jazz to more easily tank.
Once the December deadline comes up, you have more options like Jonas Valanciunas from Washington. The question is what the Suns have left to offer.
