There’s been a lot of talk among fans about adding Dennis Schröder. The backup point guard problem might be easier to solve though and for the taxpayer MLE ($6.5 mil in 2022/23). But he won’t come cheap and the price might also include one (or more) of the draft picks and/or players that the Suns would need to stay in the running for KD. A trade would be the most likely path to getting a new PF for the Suns and Atlanta has had John Collins on the trade block for some time now.Ĭollins’ career averages of 16.5 points, 8.3 rebounds and 37.6% on threes looks really good to me and his contract ($102 mil over the next 4 seasons) isn’t bad for a soon to be 25 year old that could be one of the Suns’ missing pieces in a successful championship run. The better names on that list are well past their primes and the rest would be a step down from Jae.
The Suns have little other than the taxpayer MLE to spend on a free agent and the list of available UFA power forwards is uninspiring to say the least. I love Jae Crowder and what he’s done for this team but getting a better power forward has long been on the Suns’ to-do list. If adding KD is no longer a realistic option this summer, strengthening their roster in other ways becomes the priority. If they want to be a strong contender, their roster still needs some work. With DA back in the fold for the upcoming season, the Suns will still be a very strong team and a contender in the West. They really didn’t have what the Nets wanted before matching the offer sheet the Indiana Pacers gave to Deandre Ayton but before then they at least had the potential to get more of what the Nets want through a possible sign and trade deal.
Lots of people - both fans and media types - are saying that the Suns just don’t have the assets to make a trade with Brooklyn for Kevin Durant happen.
