It’s fair to judge the Suns’ roster now

Phoenix Suns fans have been repeatedly told that they should withhold judgment of the Suns' rebuild until after Durant is traded, the draft, and free agency. Well, all three have gone by, and the Suns have a full roster of 15 players under contract. We’re not hearing any rumors that movement is imminent on any player but perhaps Nick Richards, and any trade involving him seems unlikely to change my analysis much.

So, let’s look at the Suns roster as it’s likely to look heading into opening day, and what it means. The table below shows the Suns players under contract by what their most natural position is, and how much they make in millions in parentheses afterwards.
