The only other players under contract next season are rookies DJ Strawberry and Alando Tucker. Nobody really knows what to expect from these guys because D’Antoni never utilized them in his rotation. Instead, he rotated them back and forth from the D-League.
The Suns have the 15th-overall pick in the draft, and have shown interest in players like Brandon Rush, Robin Lopez, JaVale McGee, and Donte Green. They could use this pick to add young talent to their franchise or trade the pick to improve their roster.
