David Aldridge ‏@daldridgetnt

Phoenix Suns are awarded ex-Rockets forward Luis Scola, per league sources. Houston used amnesty clause on Scola Friday.


Wow!

Congrats, you guys are going to love him. Class act and absolute warrior on the court.

Another asset for 2013 and a veteran leader in the locker room. Great deal.

Should we let Lopez go now? And play Frye as a backup C?? I'd be down with that.

Looks like you guys amnestied Childress during the process

Brian Windhorst ‏@WindhorstESPN

The Suns have waived Josh Childress using amnesty provision, sources say. Possibly making room for OJ Mayo.

Good deal.

Now we can let Lopez go and use frye at backup 4/5 and markief as backup 4.

Still not confident in this team reaching the playoffs as currently constructed.

Return to Phoenix Suns
