Grant Hill Wants to Re-Sign in Phoenix

Hill, a 38-year old free agent this summer, doesn’t envision himself wearing a different uniform. The AZ Republic reports: “Once the Suns’ playoff hopes ostensibly were crushed with home losses to New Orleans and Dallas, Suns co-captains Steve Nash and Grant Hill began talking about the Suns’ future. A future with Nash, while always subject to trade, is tied to the final year of his contract. But with Hill, his look ahead was an acknowledgement that he wants to re-sign with the Suns for a third contract in Phoenix this summer. ‘It’d be nice to come back and prove that we can be better than we were this season,’ Hill said Tuesday. ‘Let’s just hope and pray we have a season first and foremost and then we’ll see what happens. Hopefully, it works out and we can improve and get better.’ When the Suns missed the playoffs two seasons ago, Hill re-signed for a two-year deal talking about unfinished business. He had seven interested teams and narrowed his choices to Phoenix, Boston and New York but did not enjoy the drawn-out process.”
