Suns’ Updated Roster, Starting Lineup, Salary Cap After Damian Lillard Trade
And just like that, the NBA title race looks drastically different.
After an entire offseason of speculation, the Portland Trail Blazers finally traded Damian Lillard as part of a three-team deal with the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
While much of the focus will be on Lillard going to the Bucks, the Suns are also championship contenders with Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal leading the way. The loss of Deandre Ayton will hurt, but they added some quality pieces in this move.
According to Spotrac, those pieces will be added to a team with $198.8 million in total cap allocations and $-62.8 million in current cap space.
