The Suns are seeking out a first-round pick, a good young player, and a solid rotation player. If they can’t get all three, then they’re looking to require at least two of the following pieces to fall into place.
With the trade deadline right around the corner and the Jae Crowder situation being at a standstill for months, it’s hard to imagine whether or not the Suns can get the deal that they want for him this late in the process.
A lot of teams are going to potentially low ball them into an offer that they may not want only because the league knows Crowder doesn’t want to be there and the Suns have already moved on with Cameron Johnson.
At this point, hopefully the Suns can just just get one of three things to fall into place and call it a day only because it’s been dragging on for far too long and they need something in return.
The trade deadline is set at February 9th and the Suns need to act on something as soon as possible.
