Suns Acquire Ryan Anderson And De'Anthony Melton
6 years agoThe Phoenix Suns have acquired power forward Ryan Anderson and guard De'Anthony Melton in a trade with the Houston Rockets. Phoenix sends Marquese Chriss and Brandon Knight to Houston. ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the Suns could start Anderson at the four, providing the starting unit with strong spacing to help out the team's offense and make life easier for rookie center Deandre Ayton. Anderson should see a huge increase in his fantasy value over where it would have been had he remained in Houston. Meanwhile, Melton and fellow rookie Elie Okobo are the current point guards in Phoenix, but reports have indicated that the team is still in search of a veteran to man the position, making it tough to predict Melton's role with the team.
