Suns' Jared Sullinger: Traded to Phoenix

Sullinger and two second-round picks will be sent from the Raptors to the Suns in exchange for P.J. Tucker, Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports reports.

Analysis:

Sullinger missed the first two and a half months of the season after undergoing surgery to address a fractured right foot, but even when at full strength, he failed to garner a regular spot in the Raptors' rotation. With the Raptors trading for Serge Ibaka, that made Sullinger even more expendable, so he'll now head to Phoenix. Sullinger will still be relegated to a bench role with the Suns behind Marquese Chriss, so there likely won't be a huge bump in value despite the change in scenery.
