Roddy joined the Suns right before the 2023-24 trade deadline from Memphis in a three-team deal that also brought Royce O'Neale to Phoenix from Brooklyn. The 6-5, 255-pound forward played a total of 63 minutes in 17 games with the Suns as he averaged a career-low 1.3 points.

The Atlanta Hawks acquired David Roddy from the Phoenix Suns in exchange for E.J. Liddell in a swap of power forwards on Monday. Liddell was traded for the second time in less than one month. The Hawks acquired Liddell as part of a package that included two first-round draft picks in a deal that sent high-scoring guard Dejounte Murray to the New Orleans Pelicans on July 6.
