If you are going to fully enjoy the 2016-17 Phoenix Suns experience, it’s essential that you possess intimate knowledge of how much money each player is making. That way you can scream at the overpaid and sound smart when talking about the team bargain. Diehards likely already know most of the numbers, more casual fans may cringe at some of the figures. HE MAKES WHAT?!!?

Suns’ GM Ryan McDonough took a very level headed view when addressing player salaries, though it may not be what fans who have long waited for Phoenix to make a splash in free agency want to hear.
"Just because we have it doesn’t necessarily mean we’ll spend it,” McDonough told Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic. "We feel like we’ve upgraded our roster. We like the roster balance positionally. We don’t see any gaping holes in the roster.”
What do you think, Suns fans? Let’s be entirely honest, who is the team bargain and who is getting paid more than they’re worth?
