PHOENIX — The NBA trade deadline is drawing closer, and with it, many analysts and fans alike are sharing their predictions and wish lists, hoping to see which teams might make a splash by acquiring star players.
For some reason, however, some believe the Phoenix Suns should trade core pieces while the team is reaching new heights despite not being fully healthy. First, it was Dillon Brooks, then Jalen Green, and now some believe the time is right to trade All-Star Devin Booker.
