Phoenix Suns decided to release point guard Cole Anthony just three weeks after acquiring him at the trade deadline, as reported by ESPN.
Anthony, selected 15th overall in the 2020 NBA Draft, had averaged 6.7 points in 35 games this season with the Milwaukee Bucks before being traded to Phoenix in a three-team trade that also involved the Chicago Bulls . However, he did not play any games with the Suns.
The 25-year-old guard was also part of a significant trade last June between the Memphis Grizzlies and Orlando Magic , where Desmond Bane landed in Orlando. The package included Anthony, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope , four unprotected first-round picks, and a pick swap.
Now, following his departure from Phoenix, Anthony is free to sign with any franchise.
Career Stats
In six seasons in the NBA, with five of them in Orlando, Anthony has averaged 12.5 points, 4.3 assists, and 3.8 rebounds per game.
His next destination will depend on which team bets on his offensive skills and energy from the perimeter, in a market that remains active as the season's decisive phase approaches.
