From there, he intends to return to the Suns for the 2022-23 season.
“Right now, the plan is to go back to Phoenix,” Saric said referring to his contract lasting through the next season, “I talked with the coach, but you never know in the NBA. I don’t worry about that. I am trying to come back from injury and my focus is on the national team.”
Makes it sound like it wasn't an argument and it was about his contract.

Why would he argue with Monty over his contract tho? That's James Jones' job. Even playing for the national team would be more of convo with Jones I would imagine.

Much like Shel, my initial thought was related to a discussion with the Suns about his participation with the Croatian national team.
In short, it's nothing.

Most probably was about the uncertain situation about him being part of trades now and into the season: That's why he said "Right now, the plan is to go back to Phoenix" and then the "you never know in the NBA" corollary. Old school players deal with it through their coach, instead of front office management or social media passive-agressive posting.
