Devin Booker, Deandre Ayton, and Chris Paul. Would that be enough of a big three to push the Phoenix Suns into the 2021 playoffs? ESPN is reporting tonight that the Suns have engaged in conversation with the Oklahoma City Thunder about a deal for the star point guard.

According to the report, Paul’s previous relationship with Suns head coach Monty Williams (who Paul played under in New Orleans in 2010 and 2011), is a factor in the trade discussions. Paul is due $85.5 million over the next two seasons.
