Who would you rather have, Kuz, Markkanen(these first two would require a trade), Gallo, Bertans, or Jerami Grant this offseason for PF?

Why do you not like Oubre?

Bertrans. Amazing 3 point shooter. 6'10, and his net +/- numbers on offense are off the charts. He's also younger than Gallo.

Kuz, Markkanen, and Jerami all have some bad (Kuz) to horrific (Grant) +/- numbers.

I think I'd want Markkanen out of all those players, but I admit that I haven't closely tracked his play lately. He's in a bit of a slump, is he not? Looks like this year he is averaging 15.0 ppg on 42/34/83 splits, and 6.5 rpg.

I'm pretty sure I remember him playing on the Suns for a short time.

Archibald played one game for the Suns in 2003-04. Played six minutes and hit a free throw.

September 30, 2003: Traded by the Memphis Grizzlies with Brevin Knight and Cezary Trybański to the Phoenix Suns for Bo Outlaw and Jake Tsakalidis.

December 26, 2003: Traded by the Phoenix Suns to the Orlando Magic for a future 2nd round draft pick.

I haven't looked at much in regards to the draft this coming year. I was thinking though, if the Suns were to jump up into the top 3 or even 1. Would you trade the #1 or top 3 pick for SGA?
No, and I don't think OKC would either.

Thoughts on moving Baynes:
Every observer of Phoenix, however, knows how much Suns general manager James Jones and head coach Monty Williams wanted Baynes’ influence in the locker room to serve as a building-block of the culture-building process. That’s why they traded a 2020 first-round pick acquired from the Milwaukee Bucks to the Boston Celtics on draft day, adding Baynes and the No. 24 pick (Ty Jerome).

It will be a matter if Jones foregoes a few more months — and possibly more if Phoenix wants to re-sign Baynes this offseason — of Baynes mentoring second-year center Deandre Ayton and setting screens to free guard Devin Booker.

I had my doubts that OKC would, but as far as the Suns, I would think a difference maker who is on a rookie contract would be something they would help. I get that the pick would be under a rookie contract for 2 more yrs, but you know what you are getting immediately with SGA and he would be great next to Devin.
