NBA Rumors: The two key players that the Phoenix Suns have put on the market

Now that the sagas of Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal have been resolved in Phoenix, the Suns can focus on other aspects, as reported by journalist Brett Siegel from ClutchPoints. The team is still in the process of adjusting their roster for the future.

Siegel points out that two specialists in outside shooting are available in the trade market: "In recent weeks, Phoenix has been in talks with teams from both conferences regarding the availability of Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale, according to sources. The main goal of these assessments is to shed long-term contracts and open up options to build a strong core for the future."

However, Siegel clarifies that there are no imminent trades for either of the two 1.93-meter shooting guards, so it is likely that both will start the 2025-26 season in Phoenix. Nevertheless, their names will continue to be mentioned in trade talks. "The consensus during the NBA Summer League was that the Suns will involve both players in many discussions and evaluations leading up to the trade deadline in February."

O'Neale and Allen's Resumes

Royce O'Neale, 32, still has three guaranteed years left on his contract, with an average annual salary close to $11 million. Grayson Allen, 29, also has three years remaining, but with a significantly higher salary, around $18 million per year. Both players are known for their reliability from the three-point line: Allen shot 42.6% last season, after leading the league with 46% in his first year with the Suns. O'Neale, on the other hand, averaged 40.6% from beyond the arc.

This summer, the Suns have added Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks (from the Durant trade with Houston) to be part of the core starting lineup for the future. Both bring a wider range of skills, although they are not pure shooters. Brooks, however, achieved 39.7% on three-pointers last season, his career-best percentage.
