Suns forward Jared Dudley is eligible for a contract extension through October, but the team is unlikely to give him a long-term deal.

Phoenix made long-term commitments to Hedo Turkoglu and Josh Childress this summer, meaning they'll likely let Dudley become a restricted free agent next offseason.

"It would be nice," Dudley said of an extension.

"I'm not optimistic. My mindset is to go out and play my last year and go as far as we can. At the end of the year, I know if we win, I'm going to have a good year. I do a pretty good job of keeping healthy. My goal is to come out and have a better year than last year and have the team better. When a team is successful, everybody usually does pretty well. Look at Channing (Frye). $30 million. Tell him (to) let me get a little bit of that."
