Ai Phoenix Suns having reached the seventh victory in a row, it was probably enough to be able to consistently field the big three with Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal. This does not mean, however, that if from market should others appear occasions at the trade deadlinethe Suns can’t take advantage of it.
The Charlotte Hornets have registered as expected in the unofficial register of teams that “get rid of” and that before the deadline will try to get rid of the contracts of players like Miles Bridges, PJ Washigton e Gordon Hayward after selling Terry Rozier to Miami. Miles Bridges could end up in the orbit of Phoenixinterested in players capable of further raising the talent of the roster alongside the three stars.
Bridges he will be a free agent in the summerin season travels to 20.9 points per game on a mediocre team and will be eligible for a multi-year contract extension. It’s unclear whether the Hornets have still intend to bet on himalso given the delicate legal issue of the player, sentenced in 2022 to 3 years of suspended prison for domestic violence and who still has proceedings against him.
The Suns would be interested in Miles Bridges as “Loan” until the end of the season for the title race, Charlotte has no future draft picks to offer, but players like Bol Bol, who is out of the rotation, and Josh Okogie or Keita Bates-Diop. Not the ideal counterpart for the Hornets, who know however that they cannot ask for much more from the former Michigan State player.
In the meantime Phoenix beat the Dallas Mavericks soundly to the fourth defeat in five games, 132-109. Devin Booker he scored 46 points with 7 rebounds and 17 of 23 from the field, the Suns shot 60% from the field against the non-existent defense of the Mavs, without Kyrie Irving. For Bradley Beal 20 points with 7 rebounds and 7 assistsKevin Durant played a quiet game with 12 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists in 38 minutes.
