Trevor Ariza, who signed a one-year, $15 million contract with the Phoenix Suns, broke down how the deal went through and what led to his decision.

Speaking with broadcaster Tom Leader, Ariza, 33, shared the story of how he was approached by the Suns management. Ariza’s agent told him that a team wanted to speak to him. The veteran forward expected a phone call. But he got a Facetime call instead — the first in his career.

Check out the video below where Ariza explains the details of how the call went down. Also, he shares some thoughts on how he will co-exist with Devin Booker — the Suns’ new franchise player.

Many were shocked at Ariza’s decision. He opted to leave the Houston Rockets, who were one game away from eliminating the powerhouse Golden State Warriors, for the Suns — a team that has been on the losing column for quite some time now.

Asked on his decision to move to Phoenix, Ariza said that while there were a lot of options for him, the Suns were the most different:

“It’s time for a new start, new beginning. There was a lot of options for me but the one that was the most different, showed the more promise was this one. And I’m excited to be here. I’m happy to be here. It’s closer to home for me.”

On luring 14-year veteran, Suns general manager Ryan McDonough said that Ariza’s versatility, leadership, and shooting are the assets that attracted them, per NBA.com:
