Suns sign guard Jamaree Bouyea to a Two-Way Contract

The Suns sign guard Jamaree Bouyea to a Two-Way Contract.

I'm curious as to their thinking, although guards Jalen Green and Grayson Allen are presently out due to injuries.

Forward CJ Huntley was cut, but could be re-signed to a G-League contract.

I understand former Suns Jared Butler is currently playing for Crvena zvezda, a professional basketball team based in Belgrade, Serbia.

If he were available, I'm guessing he might have been another guard the Suns would have considered. He played well for the Suns prior to final roster cuts.

eh another older player trying to make it, not interested.

Jared Butler was maybe a blackhole and he wasn't in alignment is my best take as to why we didn't stick with him

For what it's worth, Isaiah Livers is 27 years old.

we have one but do not need anymore of these projects imo. We need another Maluach and Flem for the future. We have Livers and Davis already, imo have lower odds of becoming an impactful contributor.

I don't think 26 is to old. Goodwin is the same age, and Gillespie is 25.

If the dude can shoot he can fill a role for us.

Agree.

Also, it can say things about the Suns injury situation, positions of need and be an indicator of future moves.

Idk, the eye test for me, the floor and ceiling are low with him. Up and down the the pros and semi pros. I think he's waived before christmas.

There is a reason the Suns signed Bouyea to a two-way contract and I doubt this reflects on what they think of CJ Huntley long term.

He's got some spring and quick twitch, that block was pretty awesome.
