The Phoenix Suns refused to wait until the NBA Draft’s opening moments to begin retooling their roster. Agreeing to a deal with the Brooklyn Nets, the Suns just swapped pick No. 29 and Jevon Carter for sharpshooter Landry Shamet.
The exchange makes Shamet a traveler on draft day for the second straight season now, as it was during the 2020 NBA Draft when the Nets acquired his services from the Los Angeles Clippers. Before that, he played for the Philadelphia 76ers, who selected him during same draft Phoenix took Deandre Ayton and Mikal Bridges.
