Suns' Ryan Dunn: Questionable for Sunday
Rotowire
Dunn is questionable for Sunday's game against the Spurs due to a right wrist sprain.
This injury is likely stemming from the spill Dunn took while attempting to dunk on Rudy Gobert on Friday, and the former's status will be worth monitoring following Sunday's shootaround. If Dunn can't give it a go, that could result in more minutes for Isaiah Livers.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Collects three stocks in win
Rotowire
Dunn registered four points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, two steals, one block and one turnover in 24 minutes during Friday's 114-113 win over Minnesota.
Dunn took a nasty spill in this one, attempting to dunk on Rudy Gobert, and he was in some obvious discomfort after falling on his behind. While he wasn't forced to leave the game, it wouldn't be shocking to see him pop up on the injury report ahead of Sunday's contest with the Spurs, particularly with that game being the first of a back-to-back set. Isaiah Livers would likely see a bump in minutes if Dunn needs to miss a game.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Fading for Suns
Rotowire
Dunn recorded three points (1-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and three rebounds over 19 minutes during Thursday's 133-98 victory over Indiana.
For the third time this season, Dunn was held below 20 minutes for the Suns. Grayson Allen did leave this game early with a quadriceps injury, but it was Collin Gillespie who started the second half in his place. Dunn remains a low-end fantasy asset as long as Royce O'Neale and Dillon Brooks are getting the bulk of the forward minutes.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Moved to bench
Rotowire
Dunn will come off the bench for Thursday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Dunn had started all eight of Phoenix's games this year heading into Thursday's matchup, but he'll be deployed off the bench following the return of Jalen Green from a hamstring injury. Dunn should still be heavily involved in the rotation and has averaged 13.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.0 steals in his last three appearances.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Pops for season-high 17
Rotowire
Dunn racked up 17 points (6-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Sunday's 130-118 victory over the Spurs.
The second-year forward produced a new season high in points as he scored in double digits for the second straight game. Dunn, the 28th overall pick in the 2024 Draft, could be ready to build on a strong close to his rookie season. Through seven contests to begin 2025-26, he's averaging 10.0 points, 6.4 boards, 1.7 assists, 1.1 threes, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in just 24.0 minutes while shooting 52.7 percent from the floor.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Nearly double-doubles
Rotowire
Dunn closed Wednesday's 120-116 win over Sacramento with nine points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 25 minutes.
Dunn checked a lot of boxes in this game for fantasy managers. He started this game and showcased his immense defensive potential with three blocks and a steal. He was also a terror on the glass, with five of his rebounds coming on the offensive end. If there was one bit of bad news, it's that Royce O'Neale played more minutes off the bench (29) and had a strong game of his own. Regardless, there's a lot to like about Dunn's outlook going forward.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Will play vs. Sacramento
Rotowire
Dunn (rest) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's season opener against the Kings, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
After sitting out the preseason finale, Dunn will suit up to get the regular season underway.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Won't play Tuesday
Rotowire
Dunn (rest) will not suit up for Tuesday's exhibition versus the Lakers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Dunn is sitting out Phoenix's preseason finale, but he'll be good to go by Opening Night. He may see more minutes falling his way early in the season while Jalen Green recovers from a hamstring injury, so Dunn could be someone to consider with a last-round flier in deep leagues.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Paces Phoenix in SL loss
Rotowire
Dunn generated 18 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes in Monday's 94-76 Summer League loss to the Kings.
Dunn was extremely efficient during his limited run, finishing as the only Suns player to score in double figures. The 2024 first-round pick has appeared in two Summer League outings so far, averaging 17.5 points and 5.5 rebounds while shooting 65.0 percent from the field in 25.5 minutes per game.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Double-doubles Sunday
Rotowire
Dunn produced 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt), 10 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Sunday's 109-98 loss to the Kings.
Dunn finished his rookie year with another impactful performance. Even though most of his contributions aren't noticeable on the stat sheet, which limited his fantasy upside considerably throughout the campaign, Dunn was a reliable option for the Suns all season long despite being a rookie. The former Virginia star averaged 6.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.6 blocks across 19.1 minutes per game in 74 appearances (44 starts) in his first year in the league. Dunn figures to have a long-term role with the Suns, but his defensive impact will rarely be a game-changer from a fantasy perspective.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Plays well in fill-in role
Rotowire
Dunn ended Wednesday's 127-121 win over the Bulls with 16 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five rebounds, one block and one steal in 29 minutes.
Injuries to Bradley Beal (hamstring) and Grayson Allen (foot) have been offset nicely by Dunn, who made his fourth consecutive start. Over the four appearances, Dunn averaged 15.5 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 1.0 assists. The 2024 first-round pick has managed to eke out 32 starts with the team, but he's yet to score more than 18 points this season. The rookie out of Virginia will take a back seat when Beal and Allen return, but he should be a valuable development player heading into next season.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Another solid outing
Rotowire
Dunn closed with 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, two blocks and three steals across 23 minutes during Sunday's 107-96 loss to the Lakers.
Dunn has made two straight starts and totaled 29 points, eight rebounds, four assists, seven steals and two blocks during those contests. The Suns are trending in the wrong direction, which should allow the rookie to carve out a consistent role down the stretch, especially if he continues to produce on both ends of the court.

Suns' Ryan Dunn: Four steals against Sacramento
Rotowire
Dunn had 16 points (6-16 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and four steals over 33 minutes during Friday's 122-106 victory over the Kings.
The rookie forward had just three steals total over his prior 23 appearances, but Dunn was busy at both ends of the court Friday as he set a new season high in pilfers while tying his season scoring high. His elevated workload came with Grayson Allen (foot) sidelined and Mason Plumlee getting ejected after only 16 minutes, so Dunn's strong performance may not lead to a bigger role in the Suns' rotation.
