The Phoenix Suns are making significant changes to their roster and front office this offseason. After parting ways with head coach Mike Budenholzer, they appointed Jordan Ott as their new coach. Notably, James Jones was demoted from his role as president of basketball operations, with Brian Gregory stepping in as the new general manager. In a blockbuster trade, the Suns sent Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets, acquiring Jalen Green and a notable number of draft picks in return.

While speculation arose regarding a potential trade involving guard Devin Booker, he put those rumors to rest by signing a two-year, $145 million max extension, securing his place with the Suns through the 2029-30 season. Booker's excitement was palpable as he expressed his joy on social media, reaffirming his commitment to the franchise that drafted him in 2015. As the face of the Suns, Booker will continue to lead the team, especially after averaging a career-high 7.1 assists last season, possibly transitioning into a more facilitative role.
