The Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat are among some of the teams interested in trading for Phoenix Suns swingman Jae Crowder, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Crowder has not appeared in a game for the Suns this season. The veteran forward did not want to come off the bench after starting 109 games over the last two seasons, Wojnarowski adds.

The 34-year-old averaged 9.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.1 steals over his Suns tenure.

The Atlanta Hawks reportedly engaged Phoenix in trade discussions for Crowder in October, but no deal materialized.

Crowder played half a season with the Heat, contributing to Miami's run to the 2020 NBA Finals. The team eventually lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in the bubble. Over the last three seasons, Crowder has played in a league-leading 56 playoff games.

The NBA trade deadline is February 9th.
