Sources: Suns loading up with 3 1st-round picks

The Phoenix Suns are trading their 2031 first-rounder to the Utah Jazz for three first-round picks, sources told ESPN on Tuesday.

The trade triples the Suns' allotted first-round draft capital as the franchise pursues upgrades to its roster -- such as Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler. Butler, who requested a trade from the Heat earlier this month, has the Suns among his preferred trade destinations, sources said.

The Suns are acquiring the least favorable firsts in 2025 of Cleveland and Minnesota; in 2027 of Cleveland, Minnesota and Utah; and in 2029 of Cleveland, Minnesota and Utah, sources said.

The aggressive approach by the Suns unlocks their next six drafts and breaks up their lone tradable first in 2031 into three firsts. For 2025, the Suns are likely to have Cleveland's first-round pick. The Cavaliers entered Tuesday with the best record in the NBA.

The Jazz are consolidating their first-round picks acquired in the Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell trades in 2022. Including the 2031 unprotected first from Phoenix, Utah will have 11 first-round picks in the next seven years.
