Monday the Phoenix Suns parted ways with 22 year old guard Archie Goodwin. It was a curious move to many who expected that Derrick Jones Jr. or John Jenkins would be cut to trim the roster to 15 names before the 2016-17 season gets underway. Turns out it was an easier decision than first thought. Late Monday we learned that months ago Goodwin and his agents requested that the Suns seek trade partners.
Suns GM Ryan McDonough says that they tried to find a trade at the request of Archie Goodwin and his agent.
