Payton Pritchard, the former first-round pick who fell out of Boston’s rotation, has several supporters in Phoenix’s front office, sources said, and is expected to feature prominently in the NBA’s general trade landscape this summer

Not really sure what Phoenix can offer but I expect PP to be moved personally
He had be a pretty good bench option for Suns, would be nice if they can just straight up give us CP3, and I am not sure there is anyone on their bench that we would be interested in
People are gonna hate me for this but I wonder if there’s a deal for Ayton lurking in here
Will take a heavily protected 2nd round picks or cash considerations
I have this weird feeling that we are heading for some sort of *wink wink* deal with Phoenix where they buy out CP3 so he can sign with us and we trade them Pritchard in a separate deal.
PP for Book and a 1st is pretty reasonable
PP for Durant seems fair 🙂
Trade PP for CP3 straight up. Limit CP3 to practice and 10mpg till February then ramp him up to 30mpg for the playoffs. The Jays with an elite facilitator could win it all
Didn’t CP3 get waived?
He can’t be part of a trade, then, right?
PP for KD and Booker or no deal
We know what we have here.
Kevin Durant and Booker for Pritchard and a 2044 second
Good for him.
Idk if this is a minority opinion but I absolutely have no hard feelings for Pritchard. He’s a solid player who’s only gotten sporadic chances to contribute here and is buried behind 3 clearly superior players. He’s got a limited time to get his bag and it’s clearly not gonna be here. I hope he succeeds wherever he ends up and I wish him nothing but the best. Fun player.
Suns waive Paul, he then completes sign and trade for PP. waive Muscla and Champagnie to get under the apron. bingo Bango
I feel like saying he fell out of the rotation is a disservice to his talents, we were very much still using him in the playoffs and the only reason he wasn’t playing then is we were pretty stubborn about a 7 man rotation all playoffs.
CP3 is 38 and has been hurt. I’m not getting rid of Smart, White or Brogden to make room for him.
Phoenix would be great for him. Kings too
I know there was talk of CP3 resigning with the suns somehow after buyout. Is there a world where they ca sign and trade us paul for like pritchard+ other contracts to allow CP3 to get more than the vet min?
oh now that’s interesting. let’s make a deal
Is it possible Brogdon gets for a big and PP stays as the third guard?
lol PP is going to be playing in europe in a year or two… shane larkin style. Shane even played more and had better stats for us. weh
PP for Josh okogie plEASE.
How is he defensively ? Seems like one the scout is out on him how effective will he be at 20-25mpg? Feel also like if you pressure him his handles won’t be as fluid as we think. I haven’t seen him play much this year but are people overlooking his flaws since they just see upside and haven’t seen him play consistently?
I hope they do not just trade him to help him out. He’s a legit asset, C’s should get something of value in return.
I just watch PP to shine. It sucks that he didn’t get to do that with us
