PJ Tucker would be exactly the kind of veteran defensive wing they need off the bench. He would have to opt out of his $7.2m final year and sign here for less. Maybe Dallas could try to entice him with a 2 year offer. Probably still unlikely, but I'll continue to hold out hope given his relationship with Dudley. A playoff rotation wing isn't going to be easy to find in this free agent class.
Quote:As a matter of fact, Robinson told Brunson the entire Heat team thought the Suns were going to win that series except for one player: P.J. Tucker.
“He was adamant,” Robinson says of Tucker. “[He said] ‘I talked to Jared Dudley (assistant coach for the Dallas Mavericks). I gave him the game plan! I got Dallas! Dallas is winning this one. I talk to Duds.'”
