Now is the time for the Suns to decide whether or not they believe in Brandon Knight as their short-term solution at point guard. With free agency set to begin shortly, how the Suns feel about Knight will have a major impact on what they decide to do.
If they trust Knight with the starting point guard job, they can avoid spending on another starting caliber guard in free agency and instead focus on plugging other holes. But if they don’t think Knight’s their guy, they’ll have to sign a point guard, possibly at the expense of a stretch four or backup center option.
