    Careful what you guys say on the first page, it may come back to haunt you when Jawun turns out to be the missing piece.

    Maybe he is waived by the suns because he is too good for them and messes their tank for zion strategy! Morey at it again! Harden getting some help!

    This could be a Viper move, because Jawun Evans may not be playoff eligible.

    Suns Waive Jawun Evans; Rockets Expected To Make Claim
    March 23rd 2019 at 4:57pm CST by Arthur Hill
    4:57pm: Phoenix has waived Evans, tweets Gina Mizell of The Athletic.

    4:17pm: The Suns will waive two-way player Jawun Evans, who already has interest from the Rockets, tweets Michael Scotto of The Athletic.

    Evans signed a two-way deal with the Suns in December, but has only appeared in seven games for Phoenix, playing about nine minutes per night and averaging less than a point per game. He was much more productive with Northern Arizona, posting a 15.1/3.8/5.8 line in 32 games.

    The second-year point guard had a promising rookie season with the Clippers, but couldn’t earn a spot on this year’s roster. He was waived in October just before the start of the regular season, although he had a guaranteed $1.378MM deal.

    The Suns won’t be able to replace Evans because the deadline for signing two-way players has already passed. The G League season ends this weekend, and Northern Arizona won’t be in the playoffs.

    Houston has a roster opening, even after signing Chris Chiozza for the rest of the season earlier today. No move would be necessary before adding Evans, but the Rockets’ record puts them toward the back of the line for waiver claims, so it’s possible another organization could seize Evans. Teams will have 48 hours to submit claims once Evans is officially waived.
