After their disappointing 2023-24 season, the Phoenix Suns<\/a> are already beginning to look like a different team this offseason. Earlier in the year, the team fired head coach Frank Vogel in favor of five-time champion coach Mike Budenholzer. Additionally, the team brought in former NBA players Brent Barry<\/a> and James Posey<\/a> to join Budenholzer’s staff. As for the roster, the Suns brought in veterans like Monte Morris<\/a> and Mason Plumlee<\/a>. However, it seems the Suns could still add to the roster. According to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports, the Suns have interest in free agent guard Tyus Jones<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I hear there is a real chance at landing Tyus Jones & that would be a HUGE win for the Suns. Could happen very quickly if Jones would be willing to take less money than what he could get with a couple of other teams. Suns culture, playing time and chance to win may convince him. https:\/\/t.co\/0WtPqA6Qe2<\/a><\/p>\n
