Suns 2021 Off-Season: Jalen Smith is a movable asset

Explore all options.

As we prepare for the quick turnaround prior to the tip-off of the 2021-22 NBA season — October 19 is just around the corner — the Phoenix Suns and GM James Jones must navigate the NBA Draft and free agency in rapid succession. We saw it last season as everything was condensed to a week in November due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The same will occur this offseason as the NBA races to reset their annual schedule.

While the NBA Draft is this Thursday, free agency begins next Monday on August 2 (have your Shams and Woj notifications turn to “on”) with teams having the ability to officially sign free agents on August 6.
