Suns kick off trade season with small move.
Adrian Wojnarowski has reported that the Suns are acquiring forward Torrey Craig from the Milwaukee Bucks. According to reports, no Suns player will be shipped the other way in the deal, with the team only giving up "cash considerations".
Craig has averaged 2.5 points and 2.4 rebounds in only 11 minutes for the Bucks this season, but his value is not in his offense, it's his defence (bit like a bigger Jevon Carter), as he joins a versatile defensive wing rotation alongside Mikal Bridges and Jae Crowder.
He made his name in his first 3 seasons with Denver, visiting the Playoffs with the the previous 2 seasons for a total of 33 games, so he does bring some extra experience to our team in that area.
According to John Gambadoro, "Suns were in talks with Torrey Craig during free agency but backed off after signing Jae Crowder", so it seems they got their man, just a couple of months later.
Craig will slide in to the Suns' open roster spot they created after releasing Damian Jones last month.
Is this the only move the Suns will make or is this the first of James Jones' dominos to fall, leading in to the trade deadline? Let me know what you think.
