Phoenix Suns Player Could Reportedly Leave NBA

Vasilije Micic is coming off a season where he spent time with the Charlotte Hornets and Phoenix Suns.

He averaged 6.6 points, 2.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists per contest while shooting 34.8% from the field and 36.0% from the three-point range in 41 games.

However, Micic got very limited playing time with the Suns (who he finished the season with).

The Suns have to decide on an $8.1 million contract option for the 2025-26 season (for Micic).

Recently, Meridian Sport reported that Real Madrid has an interest in Micic (h/t HoopsHype and Eurohoops.net).

Based on the 31-year-old's stint with the Suns, it's unlikely that they will keep him for next season.

He has played two total NBA seasons for the Suns, Hornets (and Oklahoma City Thunder).

His career averages are 6.8 points, 1.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists per contest while shooting 39.5% from the field and 31.5% from the three-point range in 101 games.
