If the deal materializes, it would mark Gallinari's eighth team in the NBA, having previously played for the New York Knicks, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, Oklahoma City Thunder, Atlanta Hawks, Washington Wizards, and Detroit Pistons.

Gallinari, who was recently waived by the Pistons, had a stint with both Washington and Detroit this season, averaging 7.3 points and 2.8 rebounds in a total of 26 games with the former and six with the latter.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski had earlier indicated that the Suns are in the final stages of securing a deal with veteran forward Thaddeus Young. If the acquisition of Gallinari comes to fruition as well, it would further bolster the Suns' roster with experienced players.
