Suns have discussed Warren, Jackson, #6 pick in trade packages

[Town Drunk]

The Suns have discussed forwards T.J. Warren and Josh Jackson in several separate trade packages, as well as the No. 6 pick, league sources said.

(That’s the only blurb about it in Shams article)

I wouldn't trust AZ Central over a national guy when it comes to national news. All the big time sports reporters have left that paper except for McManaman

This was discounted by "NBA sources" in an article by Duane Rankin:


On Monday, The Athletic reported Warren, Jackson and the No. 6 overall pick were on the trading block, which isn't surprising. However, NBA sources told The Republic that the two players and the Suns' first-round pick weren't available.

It's kind of who do you believe. A lot of this stuff is a smokescreen. I do think Warren will be traded.

I wouldn't trust anyone who thinks the sun's aren't looking to trade TJ or JJ , I mean why would a team not want to trade the dead weight on their team?

Unless it is coming from a Suns source. Shams Charania is extremely accurate though.

Does Gambo read our forum?

We have said for quite some time that the Suns are looking to move TJ & Josh to clear the wing log jam, it would free up 17 mill in cap space- so reports they are on the block are not new. Most likely trades would be for pick that would be announced on July 6th after cap resets

And the Suns wouldn't want this out if they don't trade them. They are motivated to keep this under wraps.

He has said that July 6th date a couple times now.

For the same reason, any trade of Warren for a draft pick would likely wait until that time to be effective...

Especially since it may not be a done deal.

I wanted another first round pick in this draft even though it is said not to be a deep draft.

I'm wondering if another team might select for the Suns in this draft and the rights be traded later.

Just met with my ticket rep. She was of no help in figuring out what we are doing

From the first paragraph:

"There’s a reason Josh Jackson and TJ Warren keep coming up in trade talks. They're the most valuable pieces the Phoenix Suns could move outside of Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton."

Lost its credibility with me after that.

I'm kicking the tires everywhere as well.

For the NBA, this is lying time, believe in that.

The only two Suns players who would work salary-wise would be Josh Jackson and Tyler Johnson. I really don't want to give up on Josh Jackson, but that would be a tough deal for me to turn down, given how desperately we need a point guard and how good of a fit Holiday would be in the back court with Booker.

At the same time, I don't give much credence to this report, particularly since he has another report in his Twitter feed indicating that the Hawks are planning to trade 10 and 17 to move up to 5 to draft...Reddish, while hoping Culver drops to 8 to take with their other draft pick, and while possible acquiring Kevin Love in the process.

So the Pelicans would keep Ball as their PG? That seems unlikely. And why move up to #2 to take Barrett? Isn't #2 still Morant?

I'd be fine with Warren, Jackson, and #6 for Holiday, but that would be a big salary increase. How much room would the Suns have if they did that deal and then stretched Tyler's Johnson?

Warren, Jackson and #6 for Holiday does not work salary-wise under the CBA.

Two things:

First, make this happen James. (I really need to maintain a level head with these rumors)

Second, this could indicate that #2 is for sale so Ja Morant is attainable. If not Jrue then Ja.

This would be a great deal for the suns.

But I have a feeling it is going to be more than the 6 Jackson and Johnson. I think there will be another pick thrown in - like our 32 or the Millwaukee pick.

Oy I think that’s a big overpay. I like Jrue. And I think we need a steady vet. And he’ll help establish a defensive mentality. But that’s trading a lot of youth (JJ and a high first round pick and even a still relatively young Warren - just 25) for a dude that’s already 29. He’s not going to be here when booker, Ayton, and bridges really hit their stride.

I’d be excited to get Jrue. More excited to see how he positively impacts the rest of the team. But likely lamenting how much we gave up for him. If we sub bridges for either jJ or Warren it’s a disaster imo.

If we could swing Warren, Johnson, the 6, the 32 and a future highly protected first for Jrue I’d do it aaaaalll day.

What if it were JJ and Tyler Johnson with the #6? They are the only two players on the roster whose combined salaries would match up with Holiday.
