PHOENIX SUNS
APPROACH AT THE DEADLINE: BUYERS
The Suns are looking to add. With the new ownership group set to take over before the deadline, James Jones seems to have the greenlight to add some salary. That has the Suns in on point guards (Chris Paul insurance?) and power forwards (John Collins prime among them).
IDEAL APPROACH AT THE DEADLINE: BUYERS
It’s been a while since Phoenix has really geared up at the deadline, but we’re seeing things change in a major way now. Keep an eye on Jae Crowder and Dario Saric. That’s over $19 million in expiring salary. If you add Cameron Payne, and his partially guaranteed for 2023-24 deal to that mix, you’re up over $25 million in mostly-expiring salary. That’s enough to get in the mix for anyone who becomes available. The time is now for the Suns to make a big swing.
