NBA Odds Hint at Suns Adding Former Devin Booker Teammate originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The Phoenix Suns are expected to be one of the bigger players this offseason, with Kevin Durant on the trade block and the Suns still desperate to unload Bradley Beal and his massive contract.
With the Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs, and Minnesota Timberwolves already linked to Durant, the Suns should have a few options to pick this summer, although a new team has entered the fold.
Fresh off an Eastern Conference Finals appearance, the New York Knicks are expected to shake things up, and they could emerge as a landing spot for Durant.
That would mean pairing Booker with an old teammate of his.

O'Connell Center. Kentucky Wildcats defeated the Florida Gators 68-61.© Kim Klement-Imagn Images
The 2014-15 Kentucky Wildcats boasted nine NBA players and went undefeated in the regular season before finally losing to the Wisconsin Badgers in the Final Four.
Headlined by Towns and the Harrison twins, the Kentucky team was one of the most well-rounded college squads ever, and Booker came off the bench.
Since entering the NBA, Towns and Booker have remained close friends, and a recent odds slip by Bovada suggests that the pair could be reunited in Phoenix.
If the Knicks trade for Durant, it stands to reason that Towns would be the big salary heading back to the Suns.
While a starting unit of Towns, Booker, and Beal likely wouldn't be much better than last season's roster, Beal and Towns have a very similar timeline, and once Beal is off the team, the Suns could retool by adding complimentary players (defenders! defenders! defenders!) around their Wildcat duo.
