Butler has reportedly told teams he will not sign a contract extension, as he has a player option for the 2025-26 season and could hit free agency if he chooses. He's also reportedly shut down most potential teams in a deal - besides the Suns.

Kendrick Perkins believes that the Suns are pursuing Jimmy Butler, so they can please and extend Kevin Durant.

Jimmy Butler could potentially add another seven figures to his career earnings if the Phoenix Suns acquire him via a trade with Miami Heat.

Jimmy Butler has kept the Suns as the preferred trade destiantion for him, and everyone knows that's the only place he wants to go.

The Phoenix Suns have been bandied about as a possible destination for Jimmy Butler, the disgruntled Heat star, but does a Bradley Beal package make sense for Miami?

A day after Charles Barkley said the Phoenix Suns “stink,” ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith called them “soft” based on what the “NBA people” are saying as he put it. A team with Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal that went into the season with championship aspirations shouldn’t have a losing record and be 12 th in the West even with a number of injuries.

Miami is being patient while Butler is suspended, knowing that other teams will start to get desperate near the trade deadline.

The Phoenix Suns have emerged as one of the leading contenders to negotiate a trade for Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat. According to a former NBA player, Kevin Durant could play a pivotal role in making this blockbuster deal happen.

Chris Mannix of SI Now has gone further a report that has been circulated for nearly a month now - going to the point of removing the Golden State Warriors from the list of Butler's preferred destinations, and ultimately leaving Phoenix as the lone focus in terms of finding a new home.

The Suns would need to find a trade offer that suits the Heat and it is likely that Bradley Beal would have to leave Phoenix as part of any deal involving Butler. The issue is, Miami do not seem to be interested in the 31-year-old.

This team built around Devin Booker and Kevin Durant has not worked. Will Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia spend on Jimmy Butler to find that out?
