moving a fig tree

Despite the warm weather - so far - it's about time to relocate my Kadota fig tree. My twig in a pot has grown like crazy the past two years (about 7' tall at this time) and this past spring even had fruit. But reading up on this fig tree, discovered it required a lot more sun than it's been getting.
My questions are: since it seems to have trunks in all directions, should I prune them? should I prune the little 'sucker' limbs growing at ground level? And how about the roots - Prune them? I may have to in the process of getting rid of the original pot. How much root pruning can it stand before I've done severe damage? This group always come through with good info which is why I always come here first.
