The Phoenix Suns have waived forwards Nassir Little and EJ Liddell, creating an open roster spot as the NBA season approaches. This decision, reported by NBA insider Shams Charania, involves stretching Little's remaining three-year, $22 million contract, which will result in a $3 million annual payout until 2032. The Suns are optimistic about their younger players, Ryan Dunn and Oso Ighodaro, following the departures. While neither player was expected to significantly impact the team's performance, their release offers the Suns flexibility for potential trades and signings. The move has also sparked interest from the New York Knicks, who may consider signing Little or Liddell to bolster their roster depth. The Suns aim to bounce back from a disappointing previous season, relying on their star trio of Durant, Booker, and Beal.
