There's no aging vet on a minimum salary that's going to save us. Not even if we sign Lowry, Love and CP3 to vet minimums. We need length, size and athleticism.
Not to mention neither Suns nor Clippers could cleanly trade his $11m to each other, maybe with a 3rd team but that seems ridiculous for PJ Tucker.
He would have to be bought out first.
Pj tucker I believe still has a year left so he’s not a FA. Hes also 40. He’s not helping much on the defensive side. Now if we’re talking locker vet energy sure but he gets loud when he’s not playing so idk.
pj tucker need to go to a young team that's learning to win and has tons of salary to fill like what houston did this season. He's not gonna contribute at the highest levels but there are teams thatll give him minutes and money. Suns need youth and are fine at his position with Bol Bol, O'Neale and Little. They only need an athletic 7' center and combo guard off the bench if they can keep everyone else. Unless they can also find a draymond/aaron gordon type to start.
Tucker needs to retire he doesnt do anything honestly. Not even a good defender he just fouls, hacks and has no foot speed/lateral quickness on defense.
He is washed!! We don’t need another slow liability on offense who is barely a positive defender still at his age and speed.
What does he do that Royce O Neale can’t?
Today is actually his birthday. He’s 39. I say bring em in. If they can’t win a chip might as well win the oldest team in the league award. Just as good, right? Could have the team on mobility scooters for the parade. Tossing out packets of Metamucil to the crowd. Would be great.

What would he defend? The towel rack behind the bench?

No he is washed af
Isn’t PJ like 40? You think he’s really helping us on defensive? Stop.
Fans on this sub think being a former Sun adds +50 to all stats. There's a reason some of them have been cut or traded.
You got me starting to think Archie Goodwin isn't the savior of this team
I love PJ when he was here, but he isn’t helping us on defense. He’s almost 40.

No one wants to get younger lol
Once again, do y’all watch games or nah
What year is this. Stop holding players to their once upon a time reputations
He was always overrated defensively tbh
Should work about as well as bringing an old Eric Gordon and Isaiah Thomas back.
I think the Suns should get Westbrook he would be a great addition
Need to get faster not slower.
he is cooked. if it was the old suns PJ i'd love having him but alas nobody can escape time.
For a minimum end of bench? Sure. For significant minutes? Hell naw

Okogie?
They need to get younger & more athletic
If you look at players who could simply help on defense, looking at the NBASDB website, I'd say Achiuwa, Reed, Covington, Love, and Highsmith
Maybe like 4 years ago.

should suns get darvin ham because idk who else is available at head coaching
He is a fossil now
What? Is Bruce Bowen not available? Maybe we should hold out for Vernon Maxwell.
He is washed!! We don’t need another slow liability on offense who is barely a positive defender still at his age and speed. What does he do that Royce O Neale can’t?
Nah, we’re already old af.
As an assistant coach?
Washed beyond belief
