Because the Phoenix Suns sent two players away for one in the Shaq trade, they have 12 players on their roster; the NBA minimum is 13.
The Suns must acquire a player within two weeks from the time the trade is completed, which can't happen until Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks pass their physicals for the Miami Heat.
"We are already looking at guys, contacting agents," Suns General Manager Steve Kerr said. "I think it's safe to say we're looking for a wing defender/shooter. D.J. (Strawberry) can fill that role. Excellent defender. I would think we will add somebody like that. Preferably a guy who's played a bit."
