Report: Suns to reward Payne with 3-year, $19M contract

The Phoenix Suns agreed to re-sign guard Cameron Payne to a three-year, $19-million contract, sources told Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes.

Payne made 60 appearances for the Suns during the regular season, tallying 8.4 points and 3.6 assists per game. However, the hyper-aggressive role player shined brightest during the playoffs.

With starting point guard Chris Paul out to start the Suns' Western Conference finals series versus the Los Angeles Clippers, Payne stepped into the starting lineup, putting up a combined 40 points and 18 assists in Games 1 and 2 - both wins.
