During this year’s offseason, the Phoenix Suns reeled in several big fish, most notably their returning point guards Chris Paul and Cameron Payne, as well as high-flying big man JaVale McGee. But even after closing the books on that “free agent frenzy” only a few weeks ago, Suns fans find themselves begging for a sequel already.
Following the 2021-22 campaign, current projections from Spotract.com name the Suns as the seventh best cap oriented team heading into free agency. Extensions for Mikal Bridges and Deandre Ayton coming sooner rather than later might alter that, but for now, the Suns look well suited to pursue future talent.
