Kerr, Nash

Suns General Manager Steve Kerr will be in New York Thursday to secure a piece of the Suns' future.

Early draft preparation? No. A meeting at the NBA's offices? No.

He's in New York to meet with Steve Nash, who lives there in the summer.

Kerr will meet with the point guard and his agent, Bill Duffy, Thursday to discuss a contract extension and the the franchise's plan with the draft a week away, free agency two weeks away and numerous trade possibilities.

"It's more about letting each other know how we feel," Kerr said. "I can give him some ideas (of a plan), but there's no telling what can happen."

Nash, 35, is entering the final year of his contract, which would pay him $13,125,000 once a partial team option is exercised. Nash is eligible for a two-year extension but wants to see how the Suns' off-season moves unfold.
