The Phoenix Suns came to an agreement on a contract extension with small forward Jared Dudley. Dudley, an avid user of social media to promote his personal "brand", tweeted news of the extension just minutes before the NBA's midnight deadline. The team confirmed the news with an official announcement shortly after. Dudley would have become a restricted free agent this summer if a contract extension agreement had not been reached between the Suns and the fourth-year former Boston College standout.
