Suns seek trade offers for Stoudemire
The Phoenix Suns are seeking out teams interested in trading for All-Star forward Amare Stoudemire.
The team recently spoke to Stoudemire’s agent and got the impression that his client was really not interested in discussing a contract extension.
If the Suns are going to lose Stoudemire to free agency, they might as well trade him now and get something substantial for him.
Several teams have expressed an interest in acquiring Stoudemire, including the New Jersey Nets, Philadelphia 76ers, Chicago Bulls and Golden State Warriors.
The Suns would like to gain cap relief, get a young star and some draft picks for Stoudemire, but teams are worried that they will trade for him and then be unable to sign him to a contract extension.
