There is also a possibility that the Houston Rockets will seek a meeting with him, per the same report.

These discussions are expected to occur in Los Angeles, an NBA insider adds.

The Suns are displaying great determination in their pursuit of top-tier talent to complement their newly-formed trio of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal.

Although the Mavericks are considered the front-runners to retain Irving, they are keen on securing his commitment early in free agency to assist in attracting other free agents.

Irving, 31, is eligible for a maximum contract of $272 million over five years.
