Phoenix Suns' P.J. Tucker blocks out trade speculation

CLEVELAND -- P.J. Tucker knows his name is out there. He knows the NBA trade deadline is about a month away.

The Suns forward -- in the final year of his contract -- tries to block it out.

"It’s part of business,'' Tucker said Thursday. "Contract year. Being a defensive player, a lot of teams are looking to make an addition to (help) fight for a championship. But for me, it’s just focusing on being with my team and trying to win games. It happens every contract year. A lot of talk. A lot of it’s just rumors and people talking, but you never know in business.
