Rui Hachimura: The One That Got Away for the Suns?

Last season Rui Hachimura was available on the trade market. The Washington Wizards were looking to get rid of him. Hachimura played three plus seasons with the Wizards before ultimately being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. In his three plus seasons with the Wizards, Hachimura averaged 13 points per game, 5.1 rebounds per game, shot 47% from the floor and 35% from three.

Did the Suns Have A Real Shot At Getting Hachimura?

It was widely reported that the Wizards offered the Phoenix Suns, Hachimura for Jae Crowder. Crowder was on the Suns’ roster for much of last season but did not play until he was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks as part of a four team deal.
