This deal helps the Suns stay below the luxury tax, which was a key goal for the franchise heading into the trade deadline.
Among the four players involved in the deal, Cole Anthony had the best season so far with the Bucks, averaging 6.7 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in around 15 minutes per game.
The other three players have had very limited roles on their respective teams.
Amir Coffey's role decreased significantly after an impressive season with the Clippers last year, averaging just 2.4 points compared to 9.7 points last season.
Meanwhile, Nigel Hayes-Davis had a minimal role with the Phoenix Suns despite his standout year in the EuroLeague, where he became EuroLeague champion and Final Four MVP.
Hayes-Davis appeared in only 27 games this season, averaging 1.3 points and 1.2 rebounds in 7 minutes per game.
Nick Richards also had a limited role, averaging 3.2 points and 3.3 rebounds in under 10 minutes per game.
