Suns reportedly interested in re-signing Okogie
The Phoenix Suns are reportedly interested in re-signing Josh Okogie…
The Phoenix Suns continue to show interest in signing backup guard/forward Josh Okogie. The 25-year-old spent the past two seasons with Arizona but became a free agent after not exercising the $2.9 million option on his contract. Okogie appeared in 60 games last season, starting 11 and averaging 4.6 points and 2.6 rebounds in 16 minutes. A return to Phoenix would be a good chance to repeat that next season, but that’s unlikely as Okogie has had few rumours of other teams since becoming a free agent.Taavi Pailuk – Lottoball
The Suns are still working on re-signing Josh Okogie. Several teams want him, but PHX is confident they can keep him. Kyle Lowry is still in negotiations, and while the two sides are still in talks, he may end up returning to Philadelphia. Source: Twitter @GeraldBourguet
