Suns Hunt Backup Guard in Free Agency | NBA News

The Phoenix Suns are on the hunt for a new backup guard as free agency opens, leveraging their recent trade for Miles Bridges to create space and signal a roster reset. With a proven track record of developing talent — like Collin Gillespie and Jamaree Bouyea, both now earning big contracts — Phoenix is poised to attract free agents seeking growth and freedom. Budgeting around the taxpayer mid-level exception ($6M), they’re eyeing value signings with scoring punch, shooting range, or defensive grit. Names in the mix: Collin Sexton for scoring, Luke Kennard for three-pointers, and De’Anthony Melton for familiar defensive energy. As talks begin, the Suns aim to add a bench player who can make an immediate impact and help them push hard in the upcoming season.
