Suns’ Smart Move With Highsmith | NBA News

Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description

The Suns pulled off a savvy financial move by waiving then re-signing Haywood Highsmith, saving over $500K in cap space and potentially $3M in luxury tax while giving him a fresh shot. With a knee injury limiting him to just seven games last season, Highsmith brings elite three-and-D shooting (37.9% from deep) and could slot in as a key third-string wing with Grayson Allen and Royce O’Neale gone. His new non-guaranteed veteran minimum deal gives the Suns flexibility to waive him before Jan 7 with prorated pay, while Highsmith aims to prove he’s healthy and worthy of a full roster spot — this offseason is critical for both his career and the team’s bottom line.
