These reports came shortly after the Suns agreed to a long-term deal with Brandon Knight. It also looks like the team might have some more star power in their meeting with free agent LaMarcus Aldridge.

Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting this deal could involve a sign-and-trade with the Dallas Mavericks for Brandan Wright. Wright was a Mav before he was sent to Boston in the trade that brought Rajon Rondo to Dallas.
Chandler, 32, won a title in 2011 with the Mavericks and averaged 10.3 points and 11.5 rebounds per game last season. For his 14-year NBA career, Chandler has averaged 8.8 points and 9.3 rebounds.
