Grant Hill, who will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, appears to be making a case for both his return and that of interim coach Alvin Gentry in Phoenix.
"I'd love to play for Alvin," admitted Hill.
"It seems like in four years I've had four different coaches, so I'd love to play for Alvin next year but it's a coaching situation. I'm not making ultimatums. But I think he's shown he's going to be the coach next year," he continued.
"It's like, what are they going to do with the personnel? Are they going to blow it up and start over, or what are they going to do? I don't think the team or management knows at this point. He's more than capable and qualified."

If the Bulls make a move for a big man this summer, they reportedly rate Chris Bosh over Amare Stoudemire.
Rumor around the league is that Chicago prefers Bosh's personality, and believes that he is a better teammate than Stoudemire.
At this point in the season, it appears more likely that the Raptors will shop Bosh, but changes could be coming for the Suns as well.

A feud is brewing between Denver's Nene and Phoenix's Louis Amundson after an on-court altercation last week and a number of insults in the press.
Amundson called Nene a "dirty player" after he accused the Nuggets forward of headbutting him in a game last week.
"You learn that you don't let a stupid dude take you out of the game because he's nobody," Nene fired back. "He doesn't have much (game). He just goes over there and tries to get a contract.
"That was no head-butt. That is nothing. . . . If I do a head-butt, I break all of his face."
