The Phoenix Suns have signaled a willingness to bring back a majority of their roster going into next season. With that in mind, the Suns have several items on the offseason agenda, including a potential extension for Dillon Brooks and navigating free agency for center Mark Williams and guards Collin Gillespie and Jordan Goodwin.

In his first season with Phoenix, Brooks remained a strong defender, helped change the team’s culture, and became a 20-point-per-game scorer for the first time in his career. At 30, Brooks enters the upcoming season on the books for $21 million. Looking ahead, Brooks could earn a potential extension around an average of $25 million per season.

Williams, the team’s starting center, will enter restricted free agency after being tendered his $9.62 million qualifying offer, as Spotrac’s Keith Smith reported. Barring interest from the Chicago Bulls, who are projected to have significant cap space available on the free agent center market, Williams’ range is projected to be around the non-taxpayer mid-level exception starting at $15 million per year, give or take a few million dollars. Should Williams draw interest for the full non-taxpayer mid-level exception elsewhere, the Suns could go slightly above that range on a short-term deal.

Gillespie had a breakout season in Phoenix, averaging career-highs in points (12.7), assists (4.6), and steals (1.2), while starting 58 of 80 games. As Gillespie nears his 27th birthday on June 25th, the career 40.5 percent 3-point shooter is in line for a big pay raise. Within league circles, Gillespie was projected to earn roughly $13 million per season on his next deal. According to ESPN, he’s now agreed to a four-year, $48 million deal to remain with the Suns.

Similarly, Goodwin had a breakout season, averaging career-highs in points (8.7), rebounds (4.9), and steals (1.5) in 70 games. Within league circles, Goodwin’s projected salary range is believed to be around $5-6 million per season.

Lastly, the Suns have also done some background on Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey, HoopsHype has learned.

Too bad, Gambo and Giddey could've chatted about chasing younger women.

Goodwin is coming back according to Shams. 3 years $19M so an average of $6M per year. Seems like a bargain for the spark plug all-defensive team snub. 3rd year is a player option.

Did he say why? Is it because we have no interest? If CHI puts him on the market I'd really want to try to make it happen. A sign and trade with Williams, or something with a combination of Green, Allen and O'Neale. He is not perfect but I'd love to watch a lineup of Giddey-Booker-Brooks-Fleming-Maluach.

Paging Saucy! Where is Sauce when we need him...? I have made jokes about Giddey, but I think he'd be great here, especially his passing and court vision to help us set up our offense. I would be willing to trade most any of our mid-size contracts (Allen, O'Neale, Williams) to get him. Don't want to trade any 1sts, though.

I thinks this is a good example of what a Royce deal might look like. You’d hope we get more assets but Wiggins is (IMO) a better player on a cheaper contract.

I'd be happy with a deal like this for Royce.
"Hey, Jane - get me off this crazy thing called love." - Charlie, but also Suns fans wishing we didn't have to watch more 4th quarter small ball but knowing we will tune in for the next game.

Mavericks hiring Michigan’s Dusty May as head coach: Source
The Dallas Mavericks are plucking Dusty May from the college ranks and will make him their head coach, a league source confirmed to The Athletic.

May, who led Florida Atlantic to a Final Four appearance in 2023 and won a national championship with Michigan in April, will take charge of a Mavericks team built around reigning Rookie of the Year Cooper Flagg.

May, 49, got his start in basketball as a student manager at Indiana under legendary coach Bob Knight. May worked his way up the college ranks before being hired as a first-time head coach at Florida Atlantic in 2018. The Owls went a combined 60-13 in May’s final two seasons before he left for Michigan in 2024.

The two seasons May spent at Michigan were a resounding success. The Wolverines went 27-10 in 2024-25, a 19-win improvement from the previous season. Then last season, Michigan finished with a 37-3 record and defeated Connecticut in the national championship game. Three of the Wolverines’ starters — Yaxel Lendeborg, Morez Johnson Jr. and Aday Mara — are expected to be first-round picks in this week’s NBA Draft.
