If he bounces back to his usual healthy level of play it's a great pickup.

I'll predict it now. Morris will be the 24-25 comeback player of the year. (Is that a thing?)

One way to cut down on TOs is to be very judicious when letting Nurk run dribble handoffs.

So this puts us at 13 players under contract?

Last two spots go to Lee and Okogie?

Taurean Prince or Cedi Osman for a legit backup forward. Not willing to rely on Little, Bol or Dunn right now.

I don't see why either of them should return with what the Suns already have on the roster.
Love, Hurts.

Jordan Nwora is what I’m thinking…Prince will stay in LA…I’d be cool with Cedi

Should I pull the Monte Morris news out into its own thread? I did that for Plumlee, but I feel like I just cannibalized 80% of this thread by moving it to the other one.

If the Plumlee stuff is gone you could probably just rename this the Monte Morris thread and then we create a new one if we sign someone else? Or just make a new Morris one

There's a lot of content here now. I think a Monte Morris thread would be fine and this one covers everything else Suns FA related until and if we nab another one.

Not since they were giving it to guys coming off drug rehab (Bernard King, Micheal Ray Richardson, Marques Johnson) or coming back from a holdout - (Gus Williams). They replaced it with the Most Improved Player Award.

I wouldn't have a problem with Okogie coming back if they use the other spot for a PF/C-type backup for depth.
