Famous reporter: Suns & The Heat explores the Bill deal but negotiations break down, and the possibility of buying out is getting greater and greater

July 4th According to famous reporters Marc Stein and Jake Fischer, sources revealed that the Suns and the Heat have negotiated transactions around Bill.

Sources reportedly revealed that the Suns and the Heat had a tentative conversation this week about Bill's potential deal, but negotiations eventually broke down. The current situation is increasingly likely to be that the Suns finally buy out Bill. Bill's contract has the right to veto the transaction, and the Suns were ready very early and had to keep Bill's new season.

It is reported that the Heat have shown interest in signing Lillard, and they are also observing Bill's situation and signing him after he was bought out.

Bill will earn about $53.66 million next season, and also has a player option worth $57.13 million in the 2026-27 season.

Bill played 52 games for the Suns this season, averaging 32.1 minutes per game, scoring 16.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.1 steals, shooting percentage of 49.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 38.0%, and free throw shooting percentage of 80.3%.
