Cody Martin Rumors
Warriors interested in Seth Curry, Malcolm Brogdon, Cody Martin
We've reported previously that Seth Curry and Malcolm Brogdon are candidates for a Warriors roster spot after Kuminga's situation is resolved and the above three signings are completed. Another name on the Warriors' list of bench targets, sources say, is Cody Martin.
Duane Rankin: Phoenix Suns closer to getting under 2nd tax apron as they're not guaranteeing Cody Martin's contract of $8.6M for 2025-26 season, league sources inform @azcentral. Deadline is today. The Suns are a little over $10M over the 2nd apron. Acquired Martin in trade before 2025 trade
John Gambadoro: The Phoenix Suns will not be retaining Cody Martin. His contract was non-guaranteed until today. He will be a free agent.

The Suns will decline Vasa Micic’s $8.1 million team option, and Cody Martin’s non-guaranteed $8.7 million salary could be another cap casualty as well. Phoenix does like Martin, so that may depend on how draft night and trade market shake out. Grayson Allen and Royce O’Neale are other tradable contracts that could be on the move if the right deal arises. But the biggest obstacle to freeing up that MLE is undoubtedly Bradley Beal’s $53.7 million salary.
Suns expected to decline Vasilije Micic's option?

Yossi Gozlan: The Phoenix Suns are still above the second apron and actually increased their payroll since they don't have to match for the 10th overall pick's $6 million salary. They'd be very close to getting below the apron now by waiving Cody Martin and declining Vasilije Micic.
Suns' Cody Martin drawing interest?
League sources say several teams have registered interest in the Suns' Cody Martin. The veteran swingman could very well factor into any direct or multi-team deal that Phoenix inevitably puts together to ship out the NBA's No. 8 all-time leading scorer.
Gerald Bourguet: Kevin Durant on the Suns switching more with Ryan Dunn, Oso Ighodaro and Cody Martin: "I feel like that's the most effective way for us to guard is to be able to switch and guard 1-on-1.... You've seen something that we maybe can add going forward with those 3"

Duane Rankin: Cody Martin went through "game situations" with Suns G League team during Phoenix's 4-game road trip. 'High intensity workouts.

Gerald Bourguet: Cody Martin on whether he's better: "For the most part. I don't think anybody in the gym is 100%...the biggest thing is trying to get as close as you can 'til you feel like you are" On whether he's trying to play tonight: "Yeah man, I'm trying to play every night" pic.x.com/VxhGNonHu6
