Eastern Conference Trade Scenarios for Suns
TORONTO RAPTORS
SMALL – Suns acquire Delon Wright or Fred VanVleet for a 2018 1st round pick (via Milwaukee)
Wright (37% 3 point shooting with 8.4 points, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals) is only 25. VanVleet (40% -point shooting with 7.9 points, 2.8 assists and 0.8 steals) is only 23. Both have shown glimpses of being solid PGs when given more minutes (around 14 points and 4 assists for each guy when they play 20 plus minutes). Phoenix should ask to see which one Toronto is willing to part with.
BIG – Marquese Chriss and Tyson Chandler for Jonas Valanciunas
Chriss could mold under Ibaka and Chandler would help more in a deep playoff push so this should move the Raptors. The Suns would lock up a 25-year-old center with season averages of 12 points, 8.4 rebounds and 0.7 blocks in a mere 21.7 minutes. He can be even better than that (see 15.4 points, 10.1 rebounds and 1 block per game since Jan 17th). Jonas apparently also makes threes now, hitting 10 of his last 16 in that same span.
