Over the summer, Ryan Anderson and De'Anthony Melton were traded to the Suns in exchange for Brandon Knight and Marquese Chriss. Anderson was halfway through a four-year, $80m contract with the Houston Rockets - although the franchise quickly realised they had vastly overpaid the power forward.

The Rockets had been looking to trade Anderson for more than a year, and the Suns finally agreed a deal given their current inability to contend. Despite this, they must now pay the 30-year-old over $20m per season until 2020, and he's contributed little to the Suns while on the court.

Anderson has featured in just 15 games for the team this season, averaging 3.7 points, 3 rebounds and 1.1 assists. His three-point shooting has plummeted from 38% to a career-low 20%, and the Suns will be looking forward to the expiration of the veteran's contract.
