Why would that be so impossible? Suns have plenty of tradeable contracts and will be under the 2nd apron. They will for sure release non guaranteed Micic (8 mil) and possibly also Martin (8.7 mil), which gets them under the apron. From than on it is easy. Allen and O'Neal combined are a bit over Claxton salary.
Bigger question for me is, why Phoenix would do that, as their playable players left would be Green, Booker, Brooks, Claxton, Richards, Dunn and perhaps Iguodaro. It would make more sense if Beal would be the outgoing salary as BKN is the only team that can afford to eat his contract. Who knows, perhaps they can convince Beal to go to BKN.
On the other hand it is also not clear what BKN motivation would be to get the #10 pick. They already have 4 FRP in 2025.
