The Phoenix Suns are getting some off-season business done early.
Free agent guard Jordan Goodwin is set to sign a three-year, $19 million deal with the Suns, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Sunday.
According to Charania, the deal includes a player option in the third season.
Goodwin joined the Suns last summer after being claimed on waivers from the Los Angeles Lakers. He made the roster through training camp and went on to play a major role off Phoenix’s bench.
Over 70 games, the 27-year-old averaged a career-best 8.7 points along with 4.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.5 steals while playing 22.5 minutes.
A native of Centreville, Ill., Goodwin signed with the Washington Wizards as an undrafted free agent in 2021 after four years with the Saint Louis Billikens in the NCAA.
In 220 games, split between the Wizards, Suns, Lakers and Memphis Grizzlies, Goodwin has averaged seven points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists.
This marks the second signing of the off-season for the Suns, who are also set to re-sign guard Collin Gillespie to a four-year, $48 million deal.
