Darius Bazley is the newest member of the Phoenix Suns, but he knows their point guard – Chris Paul.

They were teammates at Oklahoma City in 2019-20 when Bazley was a rookie.

When the Suns (31-27) traded Dario Saric and a second-round pick to Oklahoma City for Bazley just before the 1:00 p.m. close of trading last Thursday, Paul called him.

“It’s just crazy how this league works, how life works,” Paul said.

Bazley and Paul have reunited as the listed 6-8 forward will be available for Tuesday’s game against Sacramento (32-24) at the Footprint Center.
