Suns would want Max Strus for Jae Crowder?
Miami is among the teams Phoenix has touched base with on a Crowder deal. Per SNY sources, some with Phoenix see Miami’s Max Strus as an integral part of any return for Crowder. I’d assume that Miami would be reluctant to move Strus in a deal for Crowder.

Look I’m just throwing this out there:
The next lineup variation I’d try is Strus in starting lineup for Martin
If neither offense or defense has popped, just go all the way into this
Split up Duncan and Max into separate lineups again, Martin plays a comfortable role, etc – 8:23 PM

More on this storyline
Since Cameron Johnson suffered a meniscus injury that will lead him to be out for one to two months, the Phoenix Suns have began to look again at the trade market of Jae Crowder. The Suns and Crowder have been seeking a trade since the offseason and he’s been away from the team since last season ended. “In the last few days, from what I understand, the Suns have picked up their Jae Crowder conversations,” said Brian Windhorst. “And tried to reengage on some old talks, so I am told. -via RealGM / November 12, 2022
“Now, does that mean they will find a deal? Obviously they’ve had some impetus to do that. It was bad news when Cam Johnson got hurt, but good news he was able to have a surgery where it was a partial removal as opposed to a repair, which would have meant him being out for the year.” -via RealGM / November 12, 2022
Crowder remains unlikely to return to the Suns if a trade continues to not materialize. “The last time I checked in on it, I was basically told ‘there is no change.’ There’s no effort by the Suns to bring Crowder in,” said Windhorst. “I’ve heard the same thing for what it’s worth,” added Tim Bontemps. -via RealGM / November 12, 2022
Anthony Chiang: Max Strus after shootaround today: “We just need to play with more grit and play harder. Our defense needs to pick up and we understand that, and I think guys take it to heart and we’ll bounce back today. It’s easy because we got some extra motivation today against Boston.” -via Twitter @Anthony_Chiang / October 21, 2022
