A plot twist: After it looked like Diandra Eyton was on her way to Indiana, Phoenix matched the Pacers' huge offer and would leave it in its ranks.
Indy offered the 23-year-old chin an unprecedented $ 133 million over four years - the highest ever bid for a limited free agent - but after much deliberation, the Suns decided to equalize.
Eyton will continue to play alongside Chris Paul and Devin Booker, and in the coming year will not be able to trade without his consent.
Until January 15, she will not be able to trade him at all - with or without his consent.
This is a small move in terms of the Suns, who did not try to extend Eyton's contract during the season and in fact hinted to him that he is not in the team's long - term plans.
Stayed in Arizona, at least for now.

Eyton already believed he would play for Indiana, and according to ESPN has already expressed enthusiasm and excitement to collaborate with Tyrese Haliberton and become the star of the team alongside him.
The Pacers, for their part, have already prepared for his arrival and to make room for him, four players have been cut - Dwan Washington, Malik Fritz, Juan Morgan and Nick Stauskas.
