Recently Traded

Recently traded player salary ($8.1M) is combined with another outgoing salary to match incoming player salary ($18.0M). Cody Martin cannot be traded to a team aggregated with other players from his team because 2 months have not passed since he was traded for. His outgoing salary cannot be combined with another one of his teammates to bring in a higher salaried player. This restriction expires after Apr 06, 2025.

Financial

Suns are unable to complete this trade. Incoming player salary ($18.0M) is matched using multiple outgoing players. Since they are an over second apron team, they are not able to aggregate players in a trade. This means for example, that they cannot send out two players to acquire one with a similar salary to both.
