My guess would be the suns are letting Ulis get his minutes and seeing how productive he can be in the league. I'm sure the suns will move knight in the off season or his contract could be up and didn't wanna get hurt cuz the suns weren't going anywhere this year.

Brandon knight isn't in part of their plan. I don't think.

He wasn't playing even before they were pursuing playoff spots.

I hope they can move him to a team that has a true perimeter need in the offseason – New Jersey; Chicago; New York; etc. Unfortunately for Knight (at least from a contribution level), most teams are scared of his contract. He still has something like four years remaining, at $12 million/year minimum and I think the last year exceeds $15 million.

He hasn't been what they thought he would be as the 6th man pretty much

Would be a good addition if they can afford him. I haven't looked at the financial latitude of the Pelicans yet, but Knight would give them a legit perimeter threat to go alongside Holiday.

Yeah idk how tight the money is there but def in need of perimeter play. Interesting to see what moves they make this off season for AD and boog

I agree. He's what the Suns need badly. The latest mock draft has them taking Fultz at 2. Too many guards. I think adding T.Jones could help too

Referring to the money situation?

they might take him but at some point, people have to start realizing...he's already been on like 3 teams, Pelicans would make it #4. I just don't think teams like him very much.

He's a SG to be honest. He is a high volume shooter at low efficiency.

True. We all know some players just need that right coach to play for to succeed and I'm not saying it's the pelicans coach but I'm hoping knight finds a team cuz he is a good kid and with talent.

He's not worth the contract.
They can get better value.

Fultz would make sense if they get rid of Bledsoe. Booker is solidified at the 2, obviously. They’d be wise to take Josh Jackson.

He's shown he is not a starting caliber pg. His role should be as an off the bench scorer, which is how they played him. Unfortunately he was disappointing in that role as well. He's paid too much for the actual impact he has. Wouldn't shock me if Knight and Bledsoe are gone within the next couple years.

Me either, but Bledsoe is LEGIT.

The Suns have shut down down Knight, Bledsoe and Chandler for a while now. Knight never really accepted his 6th man role earlier in the season anyway and whenever he did come in he disrupted the flow of the game with his one on one playground style of play. I can almost guarantee he won't be on the Suns much longer, especially with Ulis being a beast lately.

They would give Knight away for anything they could get at this point. Bledsoe they would listen on, but really, it was more to just give the young guys a lot of run.
