Cole Anthony didn't last long in Phoenix, waived after three weeks without suiting up for a game. Now, Amir Coffey appears to be fading from his own modest role in the Suns' rotation. Prior to their game against the Milwaukee Bucks, he had played just 12 minutes in the past two contests. Tuesday night, he registered a DNP.
Shipping the two veterans to Phoenix was the price the Bucks paid to land breakout forward Ousmane Dieng at the trade deadline. More than ever, it appears that they sacrificed nothing at all in the exchange while gaining a surprise starter.
