  Midway through the 2009–10 season, Price, along with Earl Watson, moved ahead of T. J. Ford on the team's depth chart.  In December, Watson became the starter and Price became the primary backup point guard.

  On November 6, 2014, Price signed with the Indiana Pacers to help the team deal with numerous injuries. Indiana had to use an NBA hardship exemption in order to sign him as he made their roster stand at 16, one over the allowed limited of 15. On November 28, 2014, he was waived by the Pacers. Two days later, he was claimed off waivers by the Cavaliers. On January 7, 2015, he was waived again by Cavaliers. On March 21, he signed a 10-day contract with the Phoenix Suns and made his debut for the team later that night, recording 2 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist in a 117–102 win over the Houston Rockets.
