The Suns have traded veteran forward Jared Dudley and a protected 2021 second-round pick to Brooklyn for forward Darrell Arthur, whose contract will be bought out, according to an NBA source.
Phoenix also will guarantee the contract of second-year guard Davon Reed Friday and the Suns plan on keeping point guard Shaq Harrison. Reed will make $1.37 million this season. Reed's and Harrison's performances in the Las Vegas Summer League were big factors in the Suns' decision to keep them.
Reed, the No. 32 overall pick in 2017, averaged 13.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game while shooting 48.
