PHOENIX — Phoenix Suns starting forward Jae Crowder won't be at training camp, which opens on Tuesday. The Suns released a statement on Sunday saying the team and Crowder "mutually agreed that he will not be with the team for training camp." The 32-year-old Crowder has been an important part of the Suns over the past two seasons, but his role is uncertain this year with the Suns poised to give more responsibility to other players. Crowder has averaged 9.7 points and 5.0 rebounds during his time with the Suns. Phoenix made it to the NBA Finals in 2021 before losing to the Milwaukee Bucks in six games.
