Realistic Suns' Scenario


SUCCESS

Fanspo logo

Beal to Miami, O'Neale and Martin to Brooklyn, Rozier and Washington to Phx, Robinson to Dallas

Beal's expressed interest in Miami before so he may approve a deal there. Rozier and Robinson isn't a lot to give and they acquire a slew of 2nds plus the '27 1st rounder. While Beal's contract is ugly, he's still a decent player, IMO, and just needs to be a primary or secondary scoring option to unlock his true value. Additionally, it's only two more years on that contract, which isn't terrible. He gets a reset, Miami gets an offensive punch, and Phoenix clears its logjam.

O'Neale and Martin could be flipped for more seconds at the deadline for Brooklyn. Also, Washington may be out on getting major minutes with Irving - Thompson - Flagg - Davis - Gafford looking to be Dallas' main five. I think Washington offers a lot of tempo, athleticism, and versatility that would go better with Phx's new style. Robinson and picks gives Dallas more assets to work with and a 3pt specialist and floor spacer that better compliments their players' and their playstyle.

New Rotation:

Phx staters: Booker - Green - Brooks - Washington - Williams

Phx bench: Rozier - Allen - Dunn - Ighodaro - Richards

Phx backups: Gillespie - Brea - Wainwright - Fleming - Maluach

No owned picks except swaps until the 2032 1st (god help us), but this is still something to work with now and in the future. With good health, I think this could even be a playoff team with a distinct up-tempo style. Rookies could work their way into the main bench rotation and cover for injuries, but I think it's also ok if the Suns take a slow development approach with them. If they were to swing this, it would also get the team comfortably under the 2nd apron.

Does it work?
