Leuer's team option for the 2015-16 season will be exercised by the Suns, the Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

The Suns have until Tuesday to make a decision, but sitting at just a shade over $1 million, Leuer's option is of negligible impact to the team's bottom line. He has yet to show much to warrant a regular NBA role, earning 186 appearances in his four professional campaigns. However, he can fill in adequately when called upon, as evidenced by averages of 4.5 points (on 44 percent shooting) and 3.3 rebounds in 13 minutes across 63 contests for the Grizzlies last season.
