The Phoenix Suns have waived guard Cole Anthony, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Friday.
Anthony, the No. 15 pick in the 2020 NBA draft, averaged 6.7 points in 35 games for the Milwaukee Bucks this season before being moved to Phoenix at the trade deadline in a three-team deal involving the Chicago Bulls. He did not appear in a game for the Suns before his release.
The 25-year-old was also part of last June's blockbuster deal between Memphis and Orlando that sent Grizzlies star Desmond Bane to the Magic for Anthony, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, four unprotected first-round picks and one first-round pick swap,
Anthony, now in his sixth NBA season, averaged 12.5 points, 4.3 assists and 3.8 rebounds in five seasons with the Magic.
