In other dumb contract moves… While trying to buy out Bradley Beal’s nightmare contract and having just gave away Kevin Durant for scrubs, the Phoenix Suns are trying to one up themselves by extending Booker at $75 million dollars per year. A reward for him never winning anything… The NBA is lost.
Booker's contract is still acceptable, at least he delivers on the court. The Suns actually need to get rid of Bradley Beal and his absurd contract. If they can trade him as well now that Durant is gone, they could create some space in the salary cap. That way, they could rebuild the team around Booker. They don't have an easy job either way, though. There are so many good teams and they don't have much chance to compete.
