Phoenix Suns targeting cost-effective center options before the trade deadline

The Phoenix Suns center position has been discussed throughout the fanbase this season. The starting center, Jusuf Nurkc, is the center of those discussions. Nurkic has dealt with multiple injuries in the year, which have limited his availability. He has not been great in the Suns rotation and was relegated to a bench role. Following that demotion, Nurkic suffered another demotion: he was entirely taken out of the Suns lineup. He has not played in the last three contests, and the Suns are 3-0 in those recent games. This is not a secret; the Suns had a frontcourt problem, and Nurkic was a part of it.

This has led the Suns to pursue centers on the trade block before the February 6th deadline.…
