Phoenix Suns Receive: G/F Malik Beasley, C Mo Bamba
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: G Chris Paul
We know what you’re thinking. That’s all the Suns can get for the Point God?
Yes. Paul is nearing retirement. His impact is not nearly what it used to be. If you’re a Suns fan, don’t hold out for a star player’s return.
This should still help the Suns. Beasley is a great movement shooter and a strong athlete. He’d be a nice depth piece for this squad.
Bamba could be too. In fact, if the Suns also move Deandre Ayton, he could be a spot starter.

Bamba’s ability to space the floor and protect the rim could make him a good starter on a team full of stars.
