2019–20 Phoenix Suns season

After the conclusion of the team's prior season, the Suns named James Jones their permanent general manager after serving as a coinciding interim general manager with Trevor Bukstein during the previous season. Bukstein was moved back to his original assistant general manager role by that time, while Jeff Bower became the senior vice president of basketball operations. On April 30, 2019, the Suns announced the departure of long-standing athletic trainer and senior vice president of athlete health and performance Aaron Nelson.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/suns/suns-statement-aaron-nelson|title = Suns Statement on Aaron Nelson|website = NBA.com}} Nelson left the Suns to be the new head athletic trainer for the New Orleans Pelicans, reuniting with David Griffin and Alvin Gentry there.{{Cite web|url=https://theathletic.com/972170/2019/05/10/qa-david-griffin-on-the-addition-of-aaron-nelson-and-how-it-could-be-a-game-changer-for-pelicans-player-care/|title=Q&A: David Griffin on the addition of Aaron Nelson and how|website=The Athletic }} Starting with this season, Nelson's position was replaced by a newly created sports medicine and performance team. The position was headlined by Brady Howe as the senior director of player health and performance, with David Crewe being the director of medical services and head athletic trainer.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/suns/press-release/phoenix-suns-announce-sports-medicine-and-performance-team|title=Phoenix Suns Announce Sports Medicine and Performance Team|website=NBA.com|date=September 20, 2019|access-date=September 23, 2019}}

During the regular season, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald also joined the front office as a partial owner, business and basketball adviser for the Suns, as well as a player adviser for both the Suns and Phoenix Mercury on January 22, 2020.{{Cite web|title=Larry Fitzgerald Moves To NBA As Part Owner Of Suns |url=https://www.azcardinals.com/news/larry-fitzgerald-moves-to-nba-as-part-owner-of-phoenix-suns|website=www.azcardinals.com}} On July 31, days after the Phoenix Suns announced the sale of their NBA G League affiliate Northern Arizona Suns franchise to the Detroit Pistons (with this season also inadvertently being their last season with the Northern Arizona Suns G League affiliate team), the Phoenix Suns franchise also confirmed that around 30 different employees involved with the franchise were laid off for varying reasons. Those reasons for their layoffs ranged from being redundant to being outdated to impacting the franchise's performance as a whole. The timing of their layoffs were also considered not related to any of the renovations for the Talking Stick Resort Arena, any plans for building their new practice facility nearby the arena, or even the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic caused upon the world.{{Cite web|url=https://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/nba/suns/2020/07/31/suns-confirm-staff-layoffs-heels-selling-northern-arizona-g-league-team/5555951002/|title = Suns confirm staff layoffs on heels of selling Northern Arizona G League team}}

On April 22, 2019, the Suns fired head coach Igor Kokoškov after only one season with the team, despite giving him a three-year deal, later firing the rest of the coaching staff the following day.{{Cite web|url=http://arizonasports.com/story/1920351/phoenix-suns-have-fired-assistants-after-dismissing-igor-kokoskov/|title=Phoenix Suns fire assistants after dismissing Igor Kokoskov|date=April 23, 2019}} After this period, the Suns interviewed former New Orleans Hornets/Pelicans head coach and Philadelphia 76ers assistant coach Monty Williams and Portland Trail Blazers assistant coaches Nate Tibbetts and David Vanterpool. Monty Williams agreed to a five-year deal to coach the Suns on May 3, which became effective on May 12 at the conclusion of the 76ers' playoff run against the eventual 2019 NBA Finals champions, the Toronto Raptors. After a lengthy interviewing process with multiple assistant coach candidates, the Suns announced their new coaching staff on June 26, with Willie Green of the Golden State Warriors, Darko Rajaković and Mark Bryant of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Brooklyn Nets scout Randy Ayers, Larry Greer of the Minnesota Timberwolves, and Portland Trail Blazers on-court assistant Steve Blake being named assistant coaches; Gonzaga University's director of analysis Riccardo Fois and Philadelphia 76ers player development specialist Ben Strong were also named player development coaches.

On July 16, 2020, during the team's stay in Orlando, Florida for the resumed season, the Suns released an updated coaching staff for the franchise during not just the rest of this season, but also intended for entering their next season as well.{{cite tweet |last=Rankin |first=Duane |user=DuaneRankin |number=1283942419642249218 |date=July 16, 2020 |title=Steve Blake and Larry Greer are no longer on #Suns coaching staff, #Suns team officials confirm. https://t.co/Onz1m3QAee |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} In this updated coaching staff, the Suns confirmed the official firings of both Steve Blake and Larry Greer from the team. Both coaches were laid off sometime between June 1, the time where the NBA's coaches made their stand on the murder of George Floyd, and July 7, the beginning of their official trip out to Orlando for the rest of their season.{{cite tweet |author=NBA Coaches Assoc. |user=NBA_Coaches |number=1267437509623103494 |date=June 1, 2020 |title=National Basketball Coaches Association Membership Statement on the Death of George Floyd https://t.co/Yc7QNpnVr5 |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} Furthermore, the Suns also announced the promotion of Riccardo Fois to being the director of player development, as well as the hiring of both Ryan Frazier as head video coordinator and former Austin Spurs and San Antonio Spurs assistant coach William Donovan III as the assistant video coordinator. Despite the sudden change before the restart, the Suns still finished their restart with a perfect run in the resumed season.

{{main|2019 NBA draft}}

Entering the night of the 2019 NBA draft, the Suns held just one first-round pick and one second-round pick.{{cite web|url=https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/2019-nba-draft-lottery-odds-knicks-cavaliers-suns-clinch-leagues-worst-records-lock-up-top-lottery-draw-positions/|title=2019 NBA Draft Lottery odds: Knicks, Cavaliers, Suns clinch league's worst records, lock up top lottery-draw positions|date=April 11, 2019|website=CBSSports.com|access-date=April 23, 2019}} With the new lottery projections, the Suns were one of three teams with the best overall odds for a top-4 pick alongside the New York Knicks and Cleveland Cavaliers. Due to them having a tied record with the Cavaliers at the end of last season, a tiebreaker coin-flip to determine which team acquired the second-best odds for a top pick in the draft was held. The Suns lost the tiebreaker, resulting in them getting the third-best odds at #1 with a chance to fall as far back as pick #7. The tiebreaker also flipped for the second-round picks; Phoenix received the #32 pick while the Philadelphia 76ers via Cleveland received the #33 pick. At the night of the draft lottery, the Suns fell to #6, the furthest a team with the third-best odds had fallen in the NBA draft lottery as of this season, as well as the worst drop-off a team with less than 20 wins received after a season.{{Cite web|url=https://nba.nbcsports.com/2019/05/15/2019-nba-draft-lottery-featured-historically-massive-shakeup/|title = 2019 NBA draft lottery featured historically massive shakeup|date = 15 May 2019}} Phoenix also held a chance to acquire the Milwaukee Bucks' first-round pick the prior season, though it would not be acquired via the Bucks having the best regular-season record that season.{{cite web|title=Suns Acquire Greg Monroe and Two Draft Picks from Milwaukee|url=http://www.nba.com/suns/press-release/suns-acquire-greg-monroe-and-two-draft-picks-milwaukee|website=NBA.com|access-date=November 7, 2017}}

On draft night, the Suns agreed to three separate trades, each involving different teams, which were all made official on July 6, 2019. The first trade involved trading small forward T. J. Warren to the Indiana Pacers and their second-round pick of the draft (which became small forward KZ Okpala of Stanford University) to the Miami Heat for cash considerations from Indiana for the purpose of opening up their salary cap in free agency. Their second trade had the Suns trade the 6th pick of the draft (which became shooting guard Jarrett Culver from Texas Tech University) to the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for power forward Dario Šarić and Minnesota's own first-round pick at #11. That selection became forward Cameron Johnson from the University of North Carolina, who became an All-ACC First Team member in the 2018–19 season. Johnson later became an efficient bench player for most of the season before performing as a capable starting power forward in the 2020 NBA Bubble, later becoming a key member for their improbable 2021 NBA Finals run. With their final trade, the Suns agreed to trade away the Milwaukee Bucks' future first-round pick (which was the 30th pick of next season's draft) to the Boston Celtics in exchange for center Aron Baynes and the 24th pick of the draft (which was earlier owned by the Philadelphia 76ers), point guard Ty Jerome from the University of Virginia. Jerome was an All-ACC Third Team member in 2018 before being an All-ACC Second Team member in 2019 and winning the 2019 NCAA tournament with Virginia. They also agreed to a partially guaranteed deal with Brewster Academy postgraduate student Jalen Lecque after the draft as an undrafted player, signing his deal alongside the other rookies on July 6, 2019.

The only player that did not sign a new deal in the initial season was Jamal Crawford; he did not sign with any NBA team before the COVID-19 pandemic, but he did sign with the Brooklyn Nets inside the 2020 NBA Bubble out in Orlando as a replacement player for Spencer Dinwiddie on July 9, 2020, under their resumed season despite his signing being after the brief signing period of June 22-July 1, 2020.{{cite tweet |author=Brooklyn Nets |author-link=Brooklyn Nets |user=BrooklynNets |number=1281360606298361856 |date=July 9, 2020 |title=Official: The Nets have signed guard Jamal Crawford as a Substitute Player for the remainder of the 2019-20 season. ⚪️⚫️ Hello, @JCrossover ⚫️⚪️ https://t.co/oFrEUpjXAa |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} However, Crawford only played in one game for his 20th season in the NBA before getting injured and later being ruled out for the rest of the season.

On September 27, 2019, the Phoenix Suns announced the signing of Auburn point guard Jared Harper on a two-way contract, as well as the training camp signings of Texas Tech forwards Tariq Owens and Norense Odiase and Ratiopharm Ulm guard David Krämer, a born Slovak raised in Austria that competitively represents Germany.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/suns/press-release/suns-announce-roster-advance-training-camp|title=Suns Announce Roster in Advance of Training Camp|website=NBA.com|date=September 27, 2019|access-date=October 1, 2019}}[https://basketball.realgm.com/player/David-Kramer/Summary/54187 David Kramer Player Profile – RealGM][https://www.fiba.basketball/europe/u20/2017/player/David-Kramer David Kramer (GER)'s profile – FIBA U20 European Championship Division A 2017 – FIBA.basketball] They later waived Owens, Odiase, and Krämer (the last of whom was injured during training camp) from the team after the conclusion of their preseason on October 15.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/suns/press-release/suns-waive-kramer-odiase-owens|title=Suns Waive Krämer, Odiase, Owens|website=NBA.com|date=October 15, 2019|access-date=October 22, 2019}} The Suns also signed and waived forwards Aaron Epps and Troy Williams on October 19.[https://stats.nba.com/transactions/ NBA Transactions][https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2019/10/troy-williams-among-players-signed-waived-on-saturday.html Troy Williams Among Players Signed, Waived On Saturday] Every player except for Williams later played for the Northern Arizona Suns afterward, with Troy playing for the U.S. Victoria Libertas Pallacanestro in Italy's Lega Basket Serie A.

Johnson was later replaced by former Philadelphia 76ers power forward Jonah Bolden on a 10-day contract two days later.{{cite web| url = https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/28688651/jonah-bolden-signs-phoenix-suns| title = Jonah Bolden signs with Phoenix Suns| date = 12 February 2020}} However, Bolden was not renewed for another 10-day contract by February 24 and did not sign with another team during this season, either before or after COVID-19 suspended this season. During the 2019–20 NBA season suspension caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Suns waived Jared Harper's two-way contract on March 14, noting the eventual cancellation of the 2019–20 NBA G League season as a consideration for him.{{Cite web|url=https://www.al.com/sports/2020/03/suns-gm-explains-why-nba-team-released-jared-harper.html|title=Suns GM explains why NBA team cut Jared Harper|date=14 March 2020}}{{Cite web|url=https://gleague.nba.com/news/nba-g-league-cancels-remainder-of-2019-20-season/|title=NBA G League Cancels Remainder of 2019-20 Season}} However, because his waiver was first announced on the day after the season was first suspended, his waiver was not regarded as official until June 23.{{cite tweet |last=Reynolds |first=Tim |user=ByTimReynolds |number=1274357380109795329 |date=June 20, 2020 |title=For the Jared Harper fans -- he was waived by the Suns after 5pm on March 11 (the day the league suspended the season), which means he'll technically be waived at 5pm on June 23 now. |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}}

When the NBA announced their plans to resume the 2019–20 season, they opened up a brief period from June 22 to July 1, 2020, where teams can expand their rosters to 17 players properly (meaning two-way contracts would play in the 2020 Playoffs due to the aftermath of this season's suspension) if they don't already have enough players to play with during their stay in Orlando, though even teams that aren't competing in Orlando will be able to make similar moves as well. Players signing in the resumed season for this period will only receive either short-term deals for the rest of the season, two-year deals with a minimum salary of 20/177th the value of the veteran's minimum for this season, or a two-way contract if eligible, with teams also eligible to waive players during that time, if necessary.{{cite web| url = https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/29339375/nba-sets-aug-17-deadline-early-entry-candidates-declare-draft| title = Memo: NBA sets Aug. 17 deadline for early-entry candidates to declare for draft| date = 20 June 2020}} With Tyler Johnson waived after the trade deadline and not yet permanently replaced by Phoenix at the time combined with Jared Harper being waived on June 23 officially, the Suns had a chance to fill up both a regular open spot and an open two-way contract spot for the 2020 NBA Bubble. (Kelly Oubre Jr. was not eligible for replacement due to him being considered out via injury with a chance to recover in time.) While it was reported that the Suns had two of their own players (which were revealed to be Aron Baynes & Ricky Rubio, with later reports expanding the amount to four or five total) tested positive for COVID-19, which made them eligible for substitute players for this season (initially players with 0–3 seasons of NBA experience before later including veteran players as well), these players were ultimately not seriously affected for the resumed season to warrant such players due to them being discovered early in that period of time and were later able to travel to Orlando before the start of the season. On June 30, 2020, the Suns signed point guard Cameron Payne, who last played for the Texas Legends in the NBA G League earlier this season, to a partially (later fully) guaranteed two-year deal worth a total of $2,173,299, with this season's guarantee of $196,288 for the Orlando period being the total veteran's minimum for his fourth season in the NBA for that section of the season.{{cite web|title=Suns sign Cameron Payne|url=https://www.nba.com/article/2020/06/30/suns-sign-payne|date=June 30, 2020|website=NBA.com|access-date=June 30, 2020}}{{cite tweet |last=Marks |first=Bobby |author-link=Bobby Marks |user=BobbyMarks42 |number=1275412654560104448 |date=June 23, 2020 |title=Minimum player scale Years of Service/Amount 0- $101,504 1- $163,356 2- $183,115 3- $189,701 4- $196,288 5- $212,753 6- $229,220 7- $245,686 8- $262,152 9- $263,457 10+- $289,803 |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} He was the only contract signed for the Suns during that period, opting not to fill up their other two-way contract spot. Tariq Owens, their only remaining two-way contract left for the season, was later confirmed to not join the Suns in Orlando for July & August as well, though he was out for his own personal reasons. None of the 22 teams in the 2020 NBA Bubble required any further substitute players once this season resumed on July 30, 2020.

The preseason schedule was announced on July 29, 2019.{{cite web|title=Suns Release 2019 Preseason Schedule|url=https://www.nba.com/suns/press-release/suns-release-2019-preseason-schedule|website=NBA.com |access-date=July 30, 2019 |date=July 29, 2019}} Their preseason schedule was the second-shortest preseason in franchise history, behind the lockout shortened 2011–12 season.{{cite web|url=https://valleyofthesuns.com/2019/07/30/the-phoenix-suns-preseason-slate-is-short-lets-just-get-to-the-regular-season/|title=The Phoenix Suns Preseason slate is short – let's just get to the Regular Season|first=Adam|last=Maynes|date=July 30, 2019|access-date=August 1, 2019}} All home games played under this time were only viewed locally through the team's official website with recording done via Livestream.com, while road games were only available online outside of the team's area, similar to their last few preseasons. However, all games were heard through local radio stations as an alternative. The Suns ended their preseason with a 2–2 record.

On June 16, 2020, the NBA provided a six phase plan for each team competing at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex nearby Walt Disney World.{{cite web|first1=Tim|last1=Bontemps|first2=Brian|last2=Windhorst|title=What we know and don't know about the NBA's return to play|url=https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/29267080/what-know-know-nba-return-play|website=ESPN.com|date=June 5, 2020|access-date=June 8, 2020}} For the fifth phase, the 22 teams left competing in Orlando played three scrimmage games behind closed doors against teams living in hotels nearby each other. For the Suns, they competed in games against other teams staying in Disney's Coronado Springs Resort for the month of July, which were the Utah Jazz, Boston Celtics, and the defending champion Toronto Raptors, all in different arenas hosting these teams at the complex.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/article/2020/07/04/nba-releases-restart-scrimmage-schedule|title=Full schedule: NBA restart scrimmages|website=NBA.com}} Unlike in the preseason, the three scrimmage games the Suns played in aired live on Fox Sports Arizona as well as local radio stations alongside the rest of the resumed games for the regular season.{{cite tweet |last=Rankin |first=Duane |user=DuaneRankin |number=1283923479931183104 |date=July 16, 2020 |title=Want to see #Suns in #NBA restart? @FOXSPORTSAZ has it covered including the three exhibition games 7/23 (Utah), 7/26 (Boston/Fox Sports Arizona Plus 10:30 a.m.) and 7/28 (Toronto). The network is also showing the first seven "seedings" games. The eighth and final one is TBD. https://t.co/59aid6LWvC |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} They also began wearing cloth face masks to protect themselves from catching COVID-19 for safety purposes. Each team's first game in the scrimmage had only 10-minute quarters for 40-minute games instead of the usual 12-minute quarters for 48 minute games due to a combination of easing players back into action and how teams like the Suns did not have everyone arrive initially on their respective dates.{{Cite web|url=https://apnews.com/917e64e9839e9ca45dc6b6cedccc22b4|title=NBA going with shorter games for Disney exhibition openers|website=Associated Press|date=18 July 2020}} Their last game began the experiment of virtual fans seeing the game live due to the temporary setup for the complex under this period, which was to be used for the rest of the season.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/article/2020/07/30/nba-announces-new-enhancements-sideline-official-release|title = NBA announces new polices, procedures for season restart|website = NBA.com}}Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211205/S80Hpo5U9UE Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20200730190352/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S80Hpo5U9UE Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{cite web| url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S80Hpo5U9UE| title = In-Venue and Broadcast Enhancements for 2020 NBA Season Restart | website=YouTube}}{{cbignore}} Phoenix finished their scrimmage games with a 2–1 record, winning their 40-minute game against the Utah Jazz, but losing to Boston and winning against Toronto in their regular, 48-minute matches.

On June 7, 2019, the NBA announced that the Suns would play against the San Antonio Spurs on December 14, 2019, at the Mexico City Arena in Mexico City.{{cite web|title=Mavs, Pistons, Suns, Spurs to participate in NBA Mexico City Games 2019|url=https://www.nba.com/article/2019/06/07/nba-mexico-city-games-2019-official-release|website=NBA.com|access-date=August 20, 2019 |date=June 7, 2019}} That game ended in an overtime loss to San Antonio. The NBA later announced the rest of the league's schedule on August 12.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/article/2019/08/12/nba-schedule-release-earlier-starts-fewer-back-backs|title=NBA schedule features earlier tipoffs, fewer back-to-backs|website=NBA.com|date=August 12, 2019|access-date=August 13, 2019}} After the first game of the season, Deandre Ayton was suspended for 25 games due to diuretic usage. Despite that setback alongside multiple serious injuries to the team, under the original schedule, the Suns put up a 26–39 record for the season, which already was their best record in over five seasons.

On March 11, 2020, the NBA postponed the rest of the regular season, effective after the end of most of the league’s games played that night. This period left most of the regular season games scheduled throughout March and April in jeopardy of cancellation due to the long suspension. The Suns ended their initial season being six games out of the playoffs from that period, just barely qualifying for resumption. On June 4, the NBA agreed to resume the regular season for 22 teams, including the Suns, behind closed doors at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida. Each team only received eight new regular season games for late July and early August before a play-in tournament began with the top two teams for Seed 8 being at least four games apart from each other before the already qualified teams went straight into the 2020 NBA playoffs. The NBA revealed every team’s remaining schedules on June 26, with the Suns having a shuffled period of the initial 8 games they originally had against bubble qualified teams from March 14-April 1, 2020 rescheduled for July 31-August 13, 2020.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nba.com/article/2020/06/26/nba-comeback-schedule-2019-20-seeding-games|title = Schedule: The 8 seeding games for all 22 teams|website = NBA.com}}

Every scheduled game the Suns played in the 2020 NBA Bubble (including their game against the Los Angeles Clippers that aired on NBA TV, as well as the last regular season game against the Dallas Mavericks that aired early on TNT, both held at the AdventHealth Arena in the designated bubble area) still aired on Fox Sports Arizona, though their entire broadcasting crew was working remotely in Arizona during these games.{{cite tweet |last=Olson |first=Kellan |user=KellanOlson |number=1278141063497084928 |date=June 30, 2020 |title=All eight of the Suns' games will be on Fox Sports Arizona and 98.7 FM/620 AM. TV pregame/halftime/postgame show as usual with Tom Leander and Tom Chambers. Kevin Ray and Eddie Johnson will call the games remotely. Ditto on the radio with Al McCoy and Tim Kempton. |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} The team also started wearing special cloth face masks during the remaining games played this season, as well as wore "Black Lives Matter" t-shirts before games and kneeling down for the national anthem.{{cite tweet |last=Rankin |first=Duane |user=DuaneRankin |number=1284177539892514821 |date=July 17, 2020 |title=These are the face coverings #Suns players and staff will be wearing during the #NBA restart games beginning July 31 that's being provided by Tempe-based @SPORTIQE https://t.co/xFbJxoysdR |language=en |access-date=January 7, 2021}} Every game these 22 teams competed in during this stretch counted for their overall regular season records. They also provided a potential jump up with playoff and draft placements in the 2020 NBA draft in the event the Suns made it to the playoffs properly, though they would not count for any potential impact in the NBA draft lottery for that upcoming draft. With their resumed season, the Suns managed to get a perfect 8–0 return in the 2020 NBA Bubble to end their regular season at 34–39. However, they did not reach the play-in tournament due to the Portland Trail Blazers having a better record and the Memphis Grizzlies having the tiebreaker over Phoenix this season.

During that period, he played only for the Greensboro Swarm, as he did not have the chance to play for the Hornets properly this season due to the 2019–20 NBA season suspension ending Charlotte's season prematurely. However, he would play in inter-squad scrimmage games set up by the NBA in late September and early October 2020, though he ended up getting waived by November 2020, never having the chance to play for the Hornets properly.}}

{{cnote|k|George King originally played with the Utah Jazz before signing a deal to play with the Dolomiti Energia Trento in Italy on July 21, 2019. He then played with the Stelmet Enea BC Zielona Góra in Poland on January 17, 2020, though neither team would finish their respective seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, King would not be granted permission to return to the NBA this season as a result of playing overseas during the pandemic.}}

{{cnote|l|Troy Daniels originally signed a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers on July 7, 2019. However, Daniels was later waived by the Lakers on March 1, 2020, the original last possible day a player could be waived and still compete for the 2020 NBA Playoffs with another team. He was then claimed off waivers by the Denver Nuggets four days later on March 5, even playing a game for Denver before the 2019–20 NBA season suspension took place. However, they would recover to play for more games in Orlando for the rest of the regular season and playoffs afterward, including being involved in the 2020 Western Conference Finals against the eventual champion Lakers.}}

{{cnote|m|Both Josh Jackson and De'Anthony Melton were traded to the Memphis Grizzlies on July 7, 2019. However, both Jackson and Melton also spent time with the Grizzlies' NBA G League affiliate, the Memphis Hustle, during this season.}}

{{cnote|n|Dragan Bender originally received a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks on July 25, 2019 and signed with them five days later. However, Bender spent most of his season with the Wisconsin Herd, albeit with him also playing a few games with the Bucks before being waived by Milwaukee (with guaranteed money) on February 10, 2020. He then signed a 10-day contract with the Golden State Warriors on February 23, impressing them enough to earn a second 10-day contract on March 5. However, Bender's second 10-day contract ended in limbo due to this season's suspension, which led to the season's early closure for Golden State with the worst record in the league this season. Furthermore, because the contract ended prematurely thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, he could not return with the Warriors after that contract expired by the season's return, even if the Warriors wanted to with their inter-squad scrimmages in late September and early October. He eventually signed a deal with Maccabi Tel Aviv to return with them in Israel on September 23, with an out-clause to return to the NBA if he improves well enough there.}}

{{cnote|o|Jamal Crawford did not receive any opportunities to play anywhere either in the NBA or overseas during the original regular season. However, he did receive a substitute player’s option with the Brooklyn Nets for the rest of the season in the 2020 NBA Bubble on July 9, 2020 despite it being after the brief signing period of June 22-July 1, 2020 where he was considered the most eligible to sign a new contract for the season. Crawford was replacing guard Spencer Dinwiddie, who caught the COVID-19 virus back in June and was not recommended to travel with the team, during the Nets' time in Orlando, Florida. He also became the eighth player to play in at least 20 seasons with his brief stint for the Nets, albeit playing in one game before being injured and eventually retiring from play altogether in the Bubble.}}

{{cnote|p|Tyler Johnson did not sign with a new team before the suspension of this season. However, Johnson received a new deal with the Brooklyn Nets on June 24, 2020, replacing Theo Pinson's position during the NBA's brief period of making new moves for the return of this season and later being reunited with former teammate Jamal Crawford during the Nets' stay in Orlando this season. Furthermore, Johnson was eligible to play in the 2020 NBA Playoffs since he was waived after the trade deadline in February.}}

{{cnote|q|Due to the 2019–20 NBA season suspension, Jonah Bolden had the potential to receive a new deal by any one of the 22 NBA teams competing in this season's resumption period in the event he was called up as a replacement player for a team during the regular season and/or playoffs if a player was infected with COVID-19. However, due to the 2020 NBA Bubble working very effectively against the virus, to the point where none of the players or NBA staff that entered the Bubble once the resumed season truly began did not catch COVID-19 there at all, none of the teams competing in Orlando ended up opening a spot up for Bolden either during this season or in these playoffs. After that point, Bolden initially retired from basketball early altogether at 25 years old in order to pursue a career with cryptocurrency in mind. However, he later unretired himself from the sport on June 19, 2023 by signing a deal with the Sydney Kings in Australia.}}

{{cnote|r|Jared Harper was initially waived by the Phoenix Suns on March 12, 2020 during the season's suspension, noting the eventual cancellation of the 2019–20 NBA G League season as a reason for waiving him, though his waiver was not regarded as official by the NBA until June 23 later that year due to the announced move being made after the suspension of the season began.}}

{{cnote|s|Jared Harper's two-way contract was claimed by the New York Knicks before reaching the Bubble's free agency period on June 25, 2020, thus letting them keep the previous two-way lease the Suns had on him while also waiving Kadeem Allen's two-way contract in the process. However, because the Knicks were one of eight teams to not resume their season after the 2019–20 NBA season suspension ended, Harper did not play with them for this season, though he did at least compete in inter-squad scrimmage games set in late September and early October with these games including players from both the New York team and some Westchester Knicks players that were selected for these training games there. Harper later signed a new two-way contract on November 25, 2020, which let him play for both the Knicks in New York and Westchester during the following season.}}
