  • Abdel Nader: Let go by Phoenix

    The Suns waived Nader (knee) on Thursday, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

    Nader was cast off the 15-man roster after Phoenix needed to open up a spot for Aaron Holiday, who was acquired from the Wizards in a deal executed shortly before the trade deadline. The 28-year-old Nader hadn't appeared in a game for Phoenix since Nov. 19 while contending with a right knee injury that left him without a clear timeline for a return. Once healthy, Nader will look to catch on with another NBA team.

  • Suns' Abdel Nader: Remains out Sunday

    Nader (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Pistons.

    Nader recently exited the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, but his time in isolation wasn't enough for him to overcome the right knee injury that has kept him out since mid-November. The Suns haven't provided any sort of update regarding if Nader has even resumed on-court work, so he'll likely miss additional games beyond Sunday.
