Jae Crowder opines on his Suns’ departure

While he helped contribute to some of the best seasons in Phoenix Suns history, former power forward and current Sacramento King Jae Crowder’s departure from the team a few seasons ago was anything but peaceful.

Heading into the 2022-23 campaign, it appeared that his role was going to shift, with younger forward Cameron Johnson taking a lot of his minutes. Before he was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks at the trade deadline, Crowder was asked to stay home, away from the team, before the team could resolve his future.

Yesterday, after an account responded to a post from Crowder on “X,” asking if he left due to a conflict with former Phoenix Head Coach Monty Williams, he responded in classic Crowder form by giving an all-caps response chronicling his final season with the team.
