Suns: Jae Crowder Suggests He Won't be at Training Camp
This offseason has truly been odd for the Phoenix Suns and Jae Crowder.
Since signing with the Suns in late November of 2020, Crowder has helped Phoenix reach new heights in his time with the team.
However, the two sides have apparently drifted away from each other. Crowder has made it very well known he wants out, while Phoenix has reportedly used him as a main trade tool when negotiating with other teams.
Crowder, entering the last year of his deal, has been rumored to lose his starting job to Cameron Johnson, who is in the middle of negotiating a new deal with the Suns.
In their most recent pursuit of Bojan Bogdanovic, Crowder was included in trade discussions according the Arizona Sports' John Gambadoro.
Monday will be media day for the Suns, with Tuesday beginning their first day of training camp.
According to a deleted tweet from Crowder, he won't be there:
This offseason has built undeniably awkward between the two sides. Crowder wants out, and the Suns have obviously tried their best to ship him away in potential trade deals.
We'll see what actually transpires come next week, but this relationship between Crowder and the Suns continues to go south.
