2026 NBA Free Agency and Trades

Ayton one and done?

Does that actually surprise you?

 

[Proximo]

Giddy is ok, but his lack of defense does not seem to fit the team we are trying to build.

I really doubt we are interested unless the price is nice.

It's looking like Precious Achiuwa has a good chance of returning to the Kings, per
@James_HamNBA
.

His energy and presence would be huge for the rebuild

No, no, no. I've been wanting Previous Achiuwa for the Suns for years.

Ayton one and done?

Perhaps not the company line, but I'd take Ayton back for the right price. He had two really good seasons with the Suns.

Gambo gives his thoughts about the Suns chances on moving up in the draft.

Gambo mentions cash. I wonder if he is talking about adding cash to move up in the draft or absorbing cash in a trade.

He did talk about the former option.

 

[Mainstreet]

He did talk about the former option.

Yeah, it sounded that way. We only have a few pieces of the puzzle.

Ayton one and done?

One thing guaranteed, it will only be news to him.

Perhaps not the company line, but I'd take Ayton back for the right price. He had two really good seasons with the Suns.

I mean I agree if he wasn't such a problem for team chemistry - but he clearly is. Better to just avoid him at any price I think.

Heard him on the radio, he is talking about using 2 million or so in combination or by itself with 47 to move into specifically 34,35,36, or 37. 35 is San Antonio, 37 OKC neither really need the pick.

All of those teams have multiple picks so they might be willing to sell.

Some good memories there. I remember when the Suns traded picks with the Spurs to draft Goran Dragic at #45.

He pissed off Monty and the Lakers coach. He will never be a Suns again

@sam_amick


"Zach LaVine and his agency are not leaving that money on the table. So, he's not opting out."

If the Suns acquired him at the right price and had good backup centers, IMO, it could work. People can mature with age.

That may be true, but the Suns flew high with him, even with the frustration that came along with it.

If I were the NBA players, I'd want to renegotiate the CBA in 2029 or 2030.

Well, that and Booker absolutely despises him.

@sam_amick


“League sources say Detroit Pistons big man Isaiah Stewart is available. The Pistons, in search of additional shooting and playmakers, appear ready to rely on seventh-year big man Paul Reed in an increased role. Stewart has two years and a combined $30 million left on his deal (team option in the second season).”

Adding Isaiah Stewart alongside Dillon Brooks, now that would be like fire and lightning.
