T.J. Warren - Joining Durant in Phoenix The Suns acquired Warren and Kevin Durant (knee) from the Nets on Thursday in exchange for Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson, Jae Crowder, unprotected first-round picks in 2023, 2025,...
Impact Durant is the obvious headliner for the Suns, but they'll also replace some forward depth with the addition of Warren, who is shooting 51 percent from the field in 18.9 minutes per game this season (26 appearances). In Phoenix, where Warren spent the first five years of his career, he should have a chance to earn a larger role and help fill the shoes of the departed Bridges and Johnson. Expect Warren to primarily compete with Damion Lee, Torrey Craig and Dario Saric for minutes.

Kevin Durant - Moved to Phoenix in blockuster The Suns agreed Thursday to acquire Durant (knee) and T.J. Warren from the Nets in exchange for Mikal Bridges, Cameron Johnson, Jae Crowder, unprotected first-round picks in 2023,...
Impact The trade of Durant comes as a surprise after recent reports suggested Brooklyn didn't intend to explore moving the superstar forward until after the season, but the 34-year-old will end up following Kyrie Irving out the door as the Nets restructure their roster. Durant is currently sidelined with an MCL sprain of his right knee that will keep him sidelined through the All-Star break, but the Suns were apparently comfortable with his medical report to sign off on the deal. Assuming Durant is ready to go at some point after the break, he'll join a star-studded lineup that includes Chris Paul, Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton, giving the Suns the sort of core that could make a deep run in the postseason.

Devin Booker - Won't play Thursday Booker will miss Thursday's game versus the Hawks to manage a left groin injury, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Booker returned to action Tuesday after more than a month on the sidelines and displayed some rust, knocking down only six of his 15 shot attempts and going just 2-of-8 from beyond the arc. He'll take a night off to rest up in the first game of a back-to-back set Thursday but seems likely to retake the floor Friday at Indiana.
