Suns have all the leverage. When you have a player under contract for four years, the player doesn't have any leverage. He could refuse to play but that's not going to help his career. And that's not really even leverage anyway.

Not really.

Several teams that were interested in Morris said the asking price was still too high and that’s made the progression toward serious talks a slow-moving process, league sources told Yahoo.

Morris’ recent benching and suspension have also hurt Phoenix’s leverage in reaching a deal.

They still have leverage. Maybe not in getting one done immediately, but they can hold onto him for as long as they want if another team wants him. If no one really wants him enough to give up something for him, than the point is moot.
