Suns Interested In Cassell, Livingston <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Free-agent options include former Sun Sam Cassell, who was bought out by the Clippers late last season and signed with Boston in time to help the Celtics to a championship. Like Johnson and Lue, Cassell is likely looking for more than the veteran's minimum contract that is all the Suns have to offer - although the number of job openings around the league is quickly shrinking. Another available point guard with a championship ring is Jason Williams, who was the starter on the 2005-06 Miami Heat title team. Williams is close friends with ex-Heat teammate Shaquille O'Neal - the two were neighbors in Orlando, and O'Neal pushed for him to be included in the blockbuster, 13-player trade between Miami and Memphis in August 2005. The Suns are also keeping tabs on ex-Clipper Shaun Livingston, who hasn't played since suffering a horrific left knee injury in February 2007. He was cleared to resume basketball activities last month but is still not ready to play. As a result, the Suns wouldn't sign Livingston with the expectation that he back up Nash, but more as a deeper bench player as he continues his comeback.</div> With Cassell, its about 90% chance that he'll be back in Boston either as a player or as an assistant. Williams would be a good option for the Suns.
Doubt we will be interested in Cassell. And i wouldn't mind Livingstone, but i don't think he will come aswell.

i was a big livingston fan as he came outta high school. as he recovers i hope he is able to finally play again and would like to see him come off the bench for the suns. he could be a good player for them.
yeah, I realize they weren't going to go all the way with the D'Antoni roster and coach, but why regress?
