According to multiple reports, Devin Booker or his agent never broached the Phoenix Suns on a trade request to another team. This stems from the current situation the Suns are facing.

Many teams have reached out about the availability of Phoenix’s superstar but were turned away, stating he isn’t on the trade block. There were past rumors that Mat Ishbia was looking into a Booker trade to reset the Suns.

Despite those rumors, there have been consistent reports of Booker remaining loyal to this franchise, even though their future is very gloomy – due to limited draft capital and being a second-apron organization.

Through 41 games this season, Booker averages 25.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, 6.7 assists, and 1.2 steals in 37.0 minutes.

According to the Philadelphia 76ers, Paul George will be considered “day-to-day) due to an injury to the extensor tendon in his left fifth finger. An MRI uncovered the injury.

His evaluation period will be through the next couple of days to determine whether he can return or needs more time.

The 34-year-old suffered the injury during Saturday’s game after playing 13 minutes; he sat out the second quarter before medical staff determined him to be out for the remainder of the game.

According to Chicago Sports Network’s K.C. Johnson, the Milwaukee Bucks have shown real interest in trading for Zach LaVine. They are reportedly looking for more perimeter help, and LaVine would fit that need.

Despite LaVine saying he wants to remain in Chicago beyond this season, the Bulls have determined to keep him on the trade block and see if someone meets their demands.

This shouldn’t be a surprise because the 29-year-old and the organization decided to part ways last season and find a trade destination. However, it didn’t happen, and now they are in this awkward position of remaining loyal but still testing market value.

If a deal were to happen, the Bucks would most likely need to send over Khris Middleton, Bobby Portis, and Pat Connaughton to match salaries. For a trade like this to commence, it would be through a multi-team trade that would allow Milwaukee to get under the second apron to aggregate player salaries.

In 42 games, LaVine averages 24.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.5 assists in 34.1 minutes.
