Coach Mike Budenholzer expressed concerns about the Phoenix Suns' performance after their recent 27-point loss to the Denver Nuggets, leaving them at a 14-14 record.

To improve, the Suns are considering trades, particularly for center Jusuf Nurkic and potentially involving Bradley Beal and Jimmy Butler. However, Beal's no-trade clause complicates matters, as does the team's luxury tax situation, which limits their trading options.
