The Phoenix Suns have exercised the $1.9M option to keep Ish Wainright in the Valley. This move was an expected one as, seeing as the roster is extremely top heavy relative to salary, the team had a need to fill out the roster with cheap contracts.
Bringing Ish back has other benefits as well. While the team doesn’t have any draft assets to add to a deal, Wainright does now become tradeable if need be. The team will possess his Bird rights next summer, as well as have the ability to make him a restricted free agent next offseason.
