Phoenix Suns
Trade target: P.J. Washington, Charlotte Hornets
The Phoenix Suns have struggled recently but the hope surrounding this team is that they will begin to hit their stride once again when Devin Booker returns from injury. They’ve been a disaster without him (as you would expect) so far this season.
Even though the Suns are getting healthier and just welcomed back Cameron Johnson, this is a team that should be trying to solidify some of its depth in the frontcourt. One way they could do that is by targeting P.J. Washington at the NBA Trade Deadline. It remains to be seen whether the Charlotte Hornets will trade him, but he’s a player that they probably should.
Washington would give the Suns another player they could play next to Deandre Ayton and one that they could invest in moving forward. What the Hornets would want in exchange remains to be seen and the Suns don’t have plenty of assets to get creative with.
