Jalen Green said Rockets 'been trying to trade me since last year' and is looking forward to playing with Suns.

He was at Phoenix's morning shootaround Friday, July 12, as the Suns open NBA Summer League action against the Washington Wizards at Thomas & Mack Center. Orlando reached the playoffs the past two seasons with Mermuys on staff.

Khaman Maluach is ready to fill a need for the Phoenix Suns. And through his short time in Phoenix, he has already earned rave reviews from coaches and players.

NCAA champion joins the Suns as a player development coach, reuniting with former teammate and current Suns owner Matt Ishbia.

The only player Phoenix has signed thus far in free agency is Nigel Hayes-Davis, who has excelled in the EuroLeague over the last few seasons. Phoenix also saw Tyus Jones, Cody Martin and Mason Plumlee all leave in free agency but they did sign Collin Gillespie to a standard contract after he was a two-way player for them last season.

The Phoenix Suns have emerged as a favorite to reunite with one of their former guards in free agency this offseason.
