Suns & Wolves Eye Giddey
21 Jun
Summary
- Phoenix and Minnesota are interested in Josh Giddey.
- Giddey averaged career highs in points, assists, and rebounds.
- His contract runs through 2029, with a value of $100 million.
The Phoenix Suns and Minnesota Timberwolves are actively exploring offseason moves, with both teams expressing interest in Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey. Following early playoff exits, executives from both franchises have voiced a commitment to aggressive roster improvements.
Phoenix, swept in the first round, and Minnesota, eliminated in a tough semifinal series, are targeting Giddey. Giddey signed a four-year, $100 million deal in September 2025, and in the first year of that contract, he achieved career highs in points (17.0), assists (9.1), and rebounds (8.3).
While the Suns are a perimeter-heavy team, the Timberwolves appear to have a more urgent need for Giddey. Minnesota's backcourt faces uncertainty with key players becoming unrestricted free agents. Despite Donte DiVincenzo's injury, Phoenix has Devin Booker as a star and will have Collin Gillespie returning.
Prying Giddey from Chicago is expected to be difficult. His youth, versatility, and team-friendly contract make him a valuable asset for the Bulls, who are unlikely to part with him easily.
