Phoenix Suns guard Brandon Knight have been through to numerous NBA trade rumors for the past few months and it looks like there are no stopping rumors to dragged him again with a new one. Now, it seems that the Brooklyn Nets are targeting to acquire his service this time.
Knight, who's been linked to being traded to the San Antonio Spurs, Dallas Mavericks, Philadelphia 76ers and Washington Wizards, is now again in the spotlight. Being in the league for six years, Knight established himself as a dependable and steady guard for teams he has been.

According to Morning News USA, a brewing trade deal is being in the works between the Phoenix Suns and Brooklyn Nets that will send Knight to the Nets but it never reveals what the Suns will get in return.
The report also stated that having Knight on the Nets roster could form a dynamic duo between him and Jeremy Lin that could provide them a dependable backcourt tandem and help stabilize the playing making for a better offense for the team.
