Suns look like geniuses for missing out on top buyout target at deadline

The biggest acquisition that the Phoenix Suns tried to make at the deadline was signing forward Jeremy Sochan after he was let go by the San Antonio Spurs.

He instead opted for the New York Knicks, in a move that looked like a blow at the time but which has actually ended up working out perfectly in Phoenix.

Sochan would have blocked development of other players

Since landing in New York, Sochan has played just over five minutes a night across 10 games. He is currently listed as day-to-day with an illness, but the reality is the Knicks didn't need him like the Suns did.
