The Phoenix Suns could be looking to make an impactful trade ahead of next week's NBA Draft.

NBA insider Jake Fischer reported in The Stein Line Wednesday night:

"Sources say Phoenix is talking trades that could net a first-round pick in this draft. The Suns are currently only guaranteed to make one pick next week: No. 47 in Wednesday's second round."

The first round of the draft is on Tuesday and then will be followed by the second round on Wednesday.

The Suns don't have much future draft capital to package to move up in the draft, so this could signal they are looking to move a player or two in exchange for a first-round pick.

Even if Phoenix doesn't trade all the way into the first round, it seems more likely than not that the Suns will at least move up in the second round for a player they covet.
