Brooks, the nine-year NBA veteran, joined the Suns during the 2025-26 season after spending two years with the Houston Rockets. 

Brooks was entering the final season of an $86 million, four-year deal he signed with the Houston Rockets in 2023. The Suns have spent much of the offseason locking up the core of last season’s team to long-term deals, including guards Collin Gillespie and Jordan Goodwin, along with center Mark Williams. Phoenix also traded for forward Miles Bridges, sending Grayson Allen and Royce O’Neale to Charlotte.

Brooks appeared in 56 games, averaging a career-best 20.2 ppg and leading the Suns into a new era after they parted ways with Kevin Durant.  

With the emergence of Brooks in Phoenix, the Suns returned to the playoffs as the eighth seed after missing the postseason the year prior, but got swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder.
