This summer, the NBA's hot news is destined to revolve around Antetokounmpo and Durant.

The Suns performed such a bad performance and collected the expensive Big Three, but still couldn't make it to the playoffs.

I personally think it is inappropriate, right?

The reconstruction of the sun is also an arrow on the string and has to be fired.

How to sell Durant for a good price is the Sun's primary issue.

Don't look at the current teams pursuing Durant.

The Spurs, Rockets, Knicks, Raptors and Clippers all just want to take advantage of them.

According to The Stein Line reporter Jake Fischer, the Raptors are seen by many parties as Durant's potential destination, especially if Antetokounmpo does not enter the trading market.

At the same time, Fischer also revealed that the Suns' asking price for Durant is 3 first-round picks.

However, Durant has his own embarrassment.

According to ESPN salary expert Bobby Marks, Durant is limited to the 38-year-old rule of the NBA labor-management agreement and can only renew his contract for two years at most.

If you stay in the Suns, Durant can renew a two-year contract of $124 million; if traded by the Suns, Durant can only renew his contract with the new team for $111 million for two years. The problem is that Durant can't even get such a contract at present.

Fischer said on the show: At present, the general view in the NBA is that Durant is just a mercenary, just a 'one-year loan contract' and a contract that is about to expire.

This is very embarrassing.

But no matter whether Durant can be traded smoothly, the Suns' head coaching problem still needs to be solved.

fired Budenholzer the day after being eliminated. The Suns's coaching position was vacant for almost two months, and it was finally confirmed.

The Suns reportedly signed Jordan Ultra.

It is reported that the Sun gave Ultra a four-year long contract.

Previously, Ultra was the Cavaliers' assistant coach, and this was his first time as head coach of an NBA team.

Although he is young, Ultra has no shortage of experience in the NBA circle. Since 2013, Ultra has been working as a video analyst for the Hawks, working in Budenholzer’s coaching staff.

Since 2016, Ultra went to the Nets to be an assistant coach and worked for 6 years.

In 2022, Ultra began to work as an assistant coach in the Lakers and assisted Ham coach. A year later, he went to the Cavaliers and continued to work as an assistant coach for Atkinson.

After accumulating so much experience, Ultra can be regarded as accumulating strength.

But the reason why the Suns chose this new coach is still not sufficient.

First of all, the Suns said that the Cavaliers' outstanding results this season are endorsed by Ultra.

But the problem is that the Cavaliers are just a regular season team. They stopped in the Eastern Conference semi-finals in the playoffs and could not see any competitiveness.

Secondly, Ott was revealed to be an alumni of Michigan State University with Suns boss Matt Ishbiya and general manager Brian Gregory.

On May 8 this year, when Gregory replaced James Jones as the general manager of the Suns, he publicly admitted that he was promoted based on his alumni relationship with his boss.

The head coach is nepotism as soon as he gets started. Can this team be better?

Finally, it is still Booker who is speechless.

This summer, Durant and Bill are likely to leave, and Booker returns to his lonely appearance.

Out will be the third head coach Booker has experienced in the past two years.

In Booker's 10-year NBA career, he has experienced 8 head coaches.

And this time he is still a "new recruit" and a person who has no experience in the NBA head coach.

Guess Booker wants to leave the sun?
