The Phoenix Suns have undergone significant changes this offseason, aiming to reshape their roster after missing the playoffs last year. The franchise made headlines by trading Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets and bringing in new talent through the draft, including Khaman Maluach, while also acquiring Mark Williams from the Charlotte Hornets. However, they faced a setback with the loss of Tyus Jones, who inked a one-year deal with the Orlando Magic, leaving a gap in the point guard position.

Jones, who averaged 10.2 points, 5.3 assists, and 2.4 rebounds last season for the Suns, was a reliable contributor off the bench and has shown potential as a starter. While the Suns welcomed Collin Gillespie to their roster earlier in the week, they may still be searching for another point guard, with Chris Paul being a name frequently linked to their interests.
