I've said it before, I wouldn't be surprised if we trade Grayson when he's available in October.

Grayson, Royce (re-signed to a reasonable deal) , '31, our seconds and our rookies will be our strongest assets (assuming Booker and Durant are off the table).

I could definitely see us making a move at the deadline, but I also think next Off-Season '31 + Nurk (expiring) will be a desirable package.

But what are you going to get for him - meaning Grayson Allen
an equal player
probably a lesser player on an overrated contract

the player to trade is Kevin Durant.

all of these other moves - trading Little, trading Nurk, future picks
just making trades to maybe improve slightly - half a game, maybe a game

Durant is a hit short term but a big more long term

But what is Booker and nobody, he's 30 in 2026, then do we trade him to rebuild the rebuild?

I know it's fun talking about it but there's no rebuild. We are already all-in. The only assets we have are bad assets and this stupid FO and ownership will not accept defeat anyway.

KD, Beal and Booker is the core we build around and the window is small. We going to improve on the margin and go for the championship. Maybe next season we will get a run where SGA, Edwards, Jokić, Luka are all injured, not wishing injury but really that's what happened during our last final run. Kawhi was injured, Murray and MPJ were injured, AD was injured and we made it to the Finals. All champions need luck

Warriors looking to make a big move with a potential CP3 and Klay trade, maybe for PG13.

If Wiggins is available, I would ask...

Grayson Allen is prime Klay Thompson on good long term deal. Stop the trade nonsense

I am not sure he is good as Klay
But trading him to trading him to look active is not good


Nurkic or little - fine

These contracts are crazy and these trades are weak. Nurkic will be off this roster for a good deal.

I like the idea of Grayson for Wendell Carter. Suns get their long term C and Magic get shooting which they sorely lack. We’ll see if they can address that in free agency. Of course in this scenario we’d want to trade Nurkic for a guard/wing to balance the roster out.

I like Grayson a lot and I wouldn’t trade him just for the sake of it. Plus we wouldn’t be able to move him until October so it all seems pretty unrealistic that he’ll be moved any time this season.

Wendel Carter can’t stay healthy, no thanks

Prime Klay severely underrated here. We're talking about an all-NBA and all-defense player with an elite 3PT shot on serious volume who gets usually gets the toughest defensive assignments on most nights (shared between him and Dray)

Depends if Quickly can continue his strong performance from last season then his contract will be well worth it.

A 25 year old PG that averages 18 ppg and 7 assists is a pretty valuable player, Grayson averaged like 13ppg and he isn't a PG while being 3 years older.

Very much so. Grayson Allen is not a Klay-lite type of player

Mavs are getting a solid fit for their roster if reports are true

Suns should really be trading Durant -- the West is going to be tough. Right now, the Suns are probably a play in game team

I'm assuming that this has some sarcasm in it. Prime clay is Bookers peak, Grayson is not nearly that. I honestly think that a good three point shooter benefited from the spacing of having Durant and Booker on the floor at the same time. Not saying I dont like Allen, I love the dude but I think he is a product of more space.

This!!! Plus add in contract year. If some team will overpay and give a quality pg or center for him you take it and don’t look back.

Gambo has spoken from across the pond in Europe. I think I would be okay with Morris and Dunn. Not Holiday. These are the types of free agents the Suns have with their lux tax. If the Rockets really want Durant - trade him now.
