Suns Tender Qualifying Offers to Mark Williams and Koby Brea

The Phoenix Suns have tendered qualifying offers to center Mark Williams and guard Koby Brea, making both restricted free agents, Spotrac's Keith Smith reports. Williams drew a reported $9.6 million offer after the 24-year-old started 55 of 60 games and averaged 11.7 points and 8.0 rebounds. A late-season foot issue that sidelined him during Phoenix's first-round series against Oklahoma City clouds both his market and durability profile. If Phoenix loses or moves Williams, Oso Ighodaro and 2025 lottery pick Khaman Maluach would be candidates for larger center minutes. Ighodaro carries the cleaner near-term fantasy appeal, while Brea remains off fantasy radars after averaging 15.0 points in the G League.

Suns Face Bouyea Option Call, with Mark Williams the Name to Watch

The Phoenix Suns face a busy offseason headlined by Jamaree Bouyea's $2.6 million team option and a group of internal free agents, including Jordan Goodwin, Collin Gillespie, Amir Coffey, and Mark Williams. Most of these are depth decisions with little fantasy weight, with Gillespie and Goodwin reported as the Suns' top re-sign priorities after Gillespie's breakout 12.7 points and 4.6 assists. The name fantasy managers should track is Williams, a restricted free agent and the only center among this free-agent group. He posted a career-high 60 games this season, a step forward for a player whose career average sits near 41 games a year, so his health and where he signs will decide his streaming value. If Phoenix retains him, he profiles as a useful per-minute rebounding and scoring big whenever he is on the floor.

Oso Ighodaro Gets Guaranteed Contract for Next Season

Phoenix Suns forward/center Oso Ighodaro will be back with the team next season. Recently, the organization guaranteed Ighordaro's contract for the 2026-2027 season. The Suns selected Ighodaro with the 40th overall pick during the 2024 draft. He averaged 6.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 82 games (24 starts) with the Suns this past season. He was mostly used in a reserve role, but saw increased playing time when Mark Williams went down due to a foot injury. Ighodaro could be in the mix for the starting center role next season. It remains to be seen what the Suns decide to do this offseason. Khaman Maluach could also be in the mix for an expanded role. Regardless, Ighodaro should take on a larger role in some capacity next season.

Suns Want to Keep Dillon Brooks Long-Term

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Dillon Brooks will enter the final season of a four-year contract in 2026-27, but the team wants to keep him around with a new long-term deal. "I do expect to figure out a way to keep Dillon long term," team owner Mat Ishbia told The Burns & Gambo Show, adding he'll be part of a championship in the "next 3-4 years." Coming over from Houston as part of the Kevin Durant trade, Brooks had his first year with the Suns in 2025-26. He took major strides offensively, averaging a career-high 20.2 points per game. The 30-year-old also tallied 3.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1.0 steals. Brooks benefited from Jalen Green's health issues this term and might struggle to replicate his offensive form next season, impacting his fantasy appeal.

Suns Not Interested in Trading Devin Booker

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker remains a centerpiece for the franchise and won't be traded, according to team owner Mat Ishbia. "Devin Booker's going to lead us to a championship here in Phoenix," Ishbia said at his end-of-season availability on Thursday. "We're going to build the team around him, he's going to get better, just like I'm going to get better and everyone around the organization is going to get better." Booker has spent his entire 11-year NBA career with the Suns and has a contract through 2030. Still, there are questions about whether his future is in Phoenix, as the Suns haven't won a playoff series since 2023. Booker will turn 30 in October but should remain among the top fantasy producers in 2026-27. He finished this season with averages of 26.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 6.0 assists per game, earning his fifth All-Star selection.

Collin Gillespie Wants to Stick With Suns

Phoenix Suns guard Collin Gillespie hopes to agree to a contract extension with the team. Logan Stanley of the Arizona Republic reports. "I want to be here," Gillespie said after Phoenix's season-ending loss to Oklahoma City on Monday. "They know that. I'm sure we'll figure something out. Right now, just process this, reflect on the season, probably this next week. Then figure that out when that needs to be figured out. This is where I want to be. I want to make this my home. They know that. We've had good conversations about it." Playing on a one-year, $2.3 million contract, Gillespie enjoyed a breakout campaign in 2025-26 and will be in line for a hefty pay raise. He averaged 12.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 1.2 steals in 28.5 minutes per game.

Jordan Goodwin Still Out Monday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Jordan Goodwin (calf) will remain sidelined in Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night. The team initially listed him as questionable, and Goodwin was considered a game-time call. Since Phoenix lost Goodwin to a calf injury, Collin Gillespie has started back-to-back games. He has made an all-around impact, averaging 7.0 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 1.5 steals. Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale also have greater fantasy appeal without Goodwin, though the Suns will likely lean heavily on the starting unit as they face elimination on Monday.

Jordan Goodwin Considered Questionable for Monday's Elimination Game

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Jordan Goodwin (calf) will likely be listed as questionable for Monday's must-win Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. Goodwin injured his left calf in the series opener, and his absence opened the door for Collin Gillespie to start. Grayson Allen's return to action also helped cover for Goodwin's absence in Game 3. In an ideal world, the Suns would want everyone available as they face playoff elimination on Monday night.

Mark Williams to Remain Out Monday

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) will remain sidelined on Monday in Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. He hasn't been part of the playoff action so far due to a foot injury. Phoenix might be eliminated on Monday, so it's possible Williams won't get another chance to return this season. In his absence, Oso Ighodaro and Khaman Maluach will continue to share the duties at the center position. Ighodaro had his best performance of the series in Game 3, notching 15 points, three rebounds, four assists, and one block in 39 minutes. Maluach has only averaged 13.3 minutes per game and doesn't warrant attention from DFS managers.

Jordan Goodwin on Track to Return Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Jordan Goodwin (calf) could return to action on Saturday in Game 3 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. Although Goodwin hasn't officially been cleared to return, he was a full participant in Friday's practice, which is a strong sign that the 27-year-old will be available after missing one game. Collin Gillespie started in Goodwin's absence in Game 2 and will likely return to the second unit on Saturday. Goodwin performed well during the Play-In Tournament and, if he gets the green light to play, will improve Phoenix in several areas, including defense and rebounding.

Grayson Allen Listed as Questionable for Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) is once again questionable on the injury report before Saturday's Game 3 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Strangely, the Suns haven't played their fourth-leading scorer in the series yet, despite Allen being upgraded from questionable to available for both Game 1 and Game 2. After practicing fully on Friday, the 30-year-old will likely be active again on Saturday, but it remains uncertain whether he'll actually get playing time.

Mark Williams Won't Play Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) will remain out on Saturday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Phoenix's first-round matchup against the defending champions reaches Game 3, but Williams hasn't played in the series yet due to a left-foot injury. Oso Ighodaro will continue to start at center, with Khaman Maluach handling backup minutes. In the first two games, Ighodaro was productive on the glass, averaging 8.5 rebounds. However, he has made a limited offensive impact, scoring 3.5 points per game. Maluach hasn't done much for the Suns either, notching 2.0 points and 2.5 rebounds across 16.5 minutes.

Devin Booker Settles for 22 Points in Game 2

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker scored 22 points in Wednesday's 120-107 Game 2 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, adding seven rebounds, four assists, and one steal to his line. He also had five turnovers in 40 minutes. Booker went 50.0 percent from the field, but the Thunder limited him to only 14 attempts. The Suns' leader couldn't get anything to drop from downtown, going 0-for-3. So far in the series, Booker has averaged 22.5 points per game and must do a lot more after being part of two clear defeats. He will hope to hit top gear in front of home support on Saturday.

Dillon Brooks Leads Suns With 30 Points Wednesday Night

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Dillon Brooks was his team's leading scorer in Wednesday's Game 2 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, racking up 30 points with a 12-for-23 effort from the field. He finished 5-for-9 from deep and had five rebounds with one assist in 38 minutes. Brooks stood out on offense as Devin Booker and Jalen Green combined for only 43 points. Although Brooks produced an efficient performance on Wednesday, the Suns are likely to go down in four games in the first round if they have to rely on him offensively. The team must get more out of Booker and Green, especially with Grayson Allen remaining a DNP-CD in Game 2.

Collin Gillespie Replaces Jordan Goodwin in Starting Unit for Game 2

Phoenix Suns guard Collin Gillespie will join the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, filling in for Jordan Goodwin (calf). The Suns are forced to make a switch after Goodwin injured his left calf in the series opener. A starting role isn't new to Gillespie, who benefited from Jalen Green's health issues during the regular season and appeared as a starter in 58 contests. In those games, Gillespie averaged 13.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists, and 1.3 steals. The Suns will be hoping for similar production from him on Wednesday night as they try to even the series.

Grayson Allen Cleared to Play Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) will suit up on Wednesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. He has been upgraded from questionable to available. Whether Allen will take the court is another matter. Recently, he has picked up a few DNP-CDs as Allen has been managing a hamstring injury. With Jordan Goodwin (calf) out on Wednesday, the Suns could really use him. Allen might be his replacement in the starting lineup, although even after Goodwin left Game 1 with a calf injury, Suns head coach Jordan Ott elected not to use Allen.

Jordan Goodwin Won't Play Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Jordan Goodwin (calf) will miss Wednesday's Game 2 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. After suffering a calf injury in Game 1, Goodwin was listed as questionable on the initial injury report. He has now been downgraded to out, leaving a starting spot open. Royce O'Neale is the likeliest candidate to fill it, while Ryan Dunn could also have an expanded role in Wednesday's game. The two would also benefit from the absence of Grayson Allen (hamstring), who is a game-time decision.

Mark Williams Misses Wednesday's Action

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) will sit out Wednesday's Game 2 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He will be unavailable for a third consecutive game after the team downgraded Williams' status from questionable to out. The big man has been battling a left foot injury since the Play-In Tournament. Due to Williams' absence, the Suns have been forced to lean more on Oso Ighodaro and Khaman Maluach at the center position. Ighodaro had a mixed performance in Game 1, grabbing a game-high nine rebounds but going scoreless in 26 minutes. Maluach also failed to score in 15 minutes but contributed three rebounds. It's a very tough matchup for the youngsters against Isaiah Hartenstein and Chet Holmgren.

Mark Williams Could Sit Again in Game 2

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 2 against Oklahoma City after missing Game 1 due to a sore left foot. His absence left Phoenix thin inside, with Oso Ighodaro starting and recording nine rebounds and three assists in 26 minutes, while Khaman Maluach added three rebounds in 15 minutes off the bench. Ighodaro would likely start again if Williams sits and should help on the glass, though his production outside of that is limited. Devin Booker and Jalen Green should continue to lead the offense, while the center spot is mostly a low-usage, role-based position.

Grayson Allen Questionable for Game 2

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's Game 2 against Oklahoma City after being listed on the injury report in recent games but not seeing the floor. He was available for Game 1 but logged a DNP-CD, leaving his role unclear even if cleared. With Jordan Goodwin (calf) also questionable, Phoenix could lean on Royce O'Neale, who posted four points, one three-pointer, three rebounds, three assists, and one block in 23 minutes, while Ryan Dunn added five rebounds in 25 minutes. Both are candidates for larger roles and carry DFS appeal if Allen remains limited. Devin Booker and Jalen Green should continue to anchor usage.
