The Hornets acquired forward
Josh Okogie from the Suns on Wednesday night. In exchange, Phoenix will receive center
Nick Richards. Okogie has averaged only 6.0 points and 2.9 rebounds this season. But he'll at least bring his defensive prowess with him to a Hornets squad that has allowed 112.4 points per game during the 2024-25 campaign. With that in mind, unless there is an injury in the starting lineup, Okogie likely won't have much value for fantasy managers.

Phoenix Suns guard
Josh Okogie (hamstring) will be out again on Monday as he continues to deal with a right hamstring strain. He was seen getting some work in after the team finished with shootaround and was moving pretty well, but not at game speed just yet. When he's able to suit up, he'll likely slot back into a depth role and may take some minutes away from rookie
Ryan Dunn or
Monte Morris. There still isn't a firm timetable for his return though.

Phoenix Suns forward
Josh Okogie agreed to a two-year, $16 million deal to remain with the team. The 2018 No. 20 overall pick didn't do much in his 60 appearances with the Suns last season. But he at least averaged 7.2 points and 3.7 rebounds in 11 starts. With that in mind, Okogie will likely mirror his numbers from the 2023-24 campaign this season, meaning he won't draw interest from fantasy managers in any format.

The Phoenix Suns remain interested in bringing back guard/forward
Josh Okogie. The 25-year-old has spent the past two seasons in Arizona but became a free agent after not picking up a $2.9 million option on his contract. Okogie averaged 4.6 points and 2.6 rebounds in 16.0 minutes last season, logging 11 starts across 60 appearances. His numbers will likely be in a similar mold next season if he returns to Phoenix, which appears likely, as Okogie hasn't really been linked with any other teams since hitting free agency.
