Phoenix Suns window of flexibility shrinks when Sonny Weems signs

While I noted the other day the Phoenix Suns have some maneuverability left under the salary cap, up to maybe $6 million in money to spend on free agent(s) or salary matching in trades before inking Weems, Price and Knight to their contracts, we are quickly approaching the day that some of the flexibility goes away.

Having that flexibility is important. At the moment, the Suns could absorb someone else's contract in a salary dump - up to roughly $6 million - as teams like New Jersey or Oklahoma City realize they've overspent in recent years and face the dreaded repeater tax.
