The 21-21 Suns are playing the reeling Brooklyn Nets - who will be without Cameron Johnson, D'Angelo Russell, Ben Simmons, Trendon Watford, and Ziaire Williams in this contest.

Rumors of Bradley Beal potentially leaving the Phoenix Suns surfaced a couple of weeks ago, and now those whispers have grown louder. Speculation suggests he could be on his way to joining an NBA Cup championship team.

As the calendar turned toward 2025, the Los Angeles Lakers made a bold roster move, trading D'Angelo Russell to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for versatile forward Dorian Finney-Smith and sharpshooter Gabe Vincent.
