Suns get: eric gordon
rockets get: dario saric, lou williams, 1st-round pick from the suns
hawks get: jae crowder
the suns are reportedly looking for veteran help in return for crowder in any trade. The suns have long been rumored to be interested in eric gordon, the veteran guard/forward from the houston rockets.
Gordon has been on the
market
for the last few years, but the rockets have not been willing to make a deal happen. The rockets are still in rebuild mode and are gathering as many drafts pick as possible. Gordon would be an excellent fit on the veteran suns team trying to make another championship run.

jae crowder might play basketball again soon. The
phoenix
suns were close to finalizing a three-team trade involving the 32-year-old forward on wednesday, according to yahoo sports' jake fischer. That report followed marc stein's tweet about "credible rumbles" that the suns had gotten closer to getting this strange saga over with. It also followed crowder posting a mantelpiece clock emoji on his instagram story.
Crowder's 11th season in the nba hasn't really started yet. Just before training camp, he tweeted (and subsequently deleted) that he wouldn't be there, and the next day the suns announced that crowder and the team had "mutually agreed" that he would not be with the team.

Los angeles — last season, the suns were the 64-win championship favorite in april, until they weren’t in may. By the time predictions for this coming season rolled around in october, the suns were almost an afterthought. Not bad, but barely discussed. That was a mistake — watching the suns in person, it quickly becomes clear this team is a title contender. This season. Again. Just ask the warriors, who fell to the suns on tuesday night, 134-105. Phoenix has its superstar in devin booker , whose numbers from the first week of the season — 32. 5 points per game while shooting 48% from 3 — show him taking a step forward from his all-nba level a year ago.
THEY’RE BACK: PHOENIX SUNS REVEAL CLASSIC UNIFORM
By shondiin silversmith, arizona mirror november 23, 2022 by shondiin silversmith, arizona mirror november 23, 2022 the turquoise-colored phoenix suns 2022-2023 city edition uniform pays tribute to the rich histories and cultures of arizona’s 22 tribal nations. “this is historic to have a major sports franchise like the phoenix suns, to recognize the first peoples, the indigenous peoples of arizona,” gila river indian community governor stephen roe lewis said in a video revealing the suns’ new jerseys. When designing the uniform, with help from local partners, the team was inspired by thousands of years of shared characteristics, symbols and traits “this is the first time we’ve had a uniform dedicated to the state’s native american roots, so we’ve spent the past few years immersing ourselves in the history and cultures of arizona’s tribal nations to properly honor each tribe’s heritage and traditions,” phoenix suns senior marketing director graham wincott said.
Shams: Suns interested in Hawks’ John Collins
The suns‘ interest in rockets forward kenyon martin jr. , first reported by shams charania last week , has resulted in houston getting involved in some three-team jae crowder trade discussions, fischer reports. Sources also confirm to yahoo sports that the bucks have tried to use grayson allen to acquire crowder, but phoenix and milwaukee have yet to find common ground on a straight-up deal. There was “true momentum” toward a trade this past offseason that would have sent hawks big man john collins to the kings, and the wizards showed real interest in collins prior to last season’s trade deadline, writes fischer.
