Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Career-high in boards Friday
Ighodaro totaled six points (3-7 FG), 13 rebounds and four assists over 44 minutes during Friday's 123-112 win over Cleveland.
The 2024 second-rounder saw a career-high workload with Nick Richards (calf) and Mason Plumlee (quadriceps) both unavailable and Ighodaro turned the opportunity into his best performance yet on the glass. He's played at least 20 minutes in six straight games, averaging 7.0 points, 7.3 boards, 2.3 assists and 1.0 blocks during that span while shooting 70.4 percent from the floor, and Ighodaro could retain a significant role in the frontcourt rotation even after Richards returns to the lineup.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Will start vs. Cleveland
Ighodaro will be in the starting lineup in Friday's game against the Cavaliers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Ighodaro will start against Cleveland, with Nick Richards ruled out due to an illness. In two previous games as a starter for the Suns, the rookie big man averaged 5.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game while shooting 69.2 percent from the floor.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Steps up with four blocks
Ighodaro accumulated eight points (4-4 FG), six rebounds and four blocks across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 111-104 loss to the Rockets.
Nick Richards missed this game with an ankle injury, and Mason Plumlee was ejected after 13 minutes of floor time after getting into a scrap with Steven Adams. If Plumlee is issued a suspension and/or Richards misses additional time, Ighodaro would offer plenty of appeal as a streaming option. In two starts this season, Ighodaro posted 9.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 steals in 30.0 minutes.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Goes unused Friday
Ighodaro (coach's decision) didn't play Friday in the Suns' 149-141 overtime loss to the Nuggets.
Ighodoro was back with the Suns after a brief stint in the G League, but he remained outside of the rotation.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Sent to G League

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Increased role in victory
Ighodaro amassed four points (2-4 FG), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 25 minutes during Thursday's 123-115 victory over the Hawks.
The rookie saw significant playing time due to Jusuf Nurkic falling out of the rotation in Thursday's win. Ighodaro has received fairly inconsistent playing time through the early part of the season, though he could be in for an increased role if Nurkic is traded, or remains limited in the rotation. Over his last five outings, Ighodaro has averaged 3.2 points and 4.2 rebounds in 17.8 minutes per contest.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Questionable with illness
Ighodaro (illness) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Pacers.
With Jusuf Nurkic serving a suspension and Royce O'Neale ruled out, the Suns might be without some big bodies in the paint against the Pacers on Saturday. Ighodaro could join them, which will likely pave the way for more minutes for Ryan Dunn and possibly Bol Bol.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Out against Indiana
Ighodaro (illness) will not play Saturday against the Pacers.
The Suns will be very thin in the frontcourt with Jusuf Nurkic serving the final game of his suspension. Mason Plumlee will be asked to hold down the fort at center, while guys like Ryan Dunn and Bol Bol could potentially see some extra run.

Ighodaro registered two points (1-4 FG), two rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 17 minutes during Tuesday's 117-112 loss to Memphis.
Ighodaro saw a few extra minutes once again due to the fact Jusuf Nurkic is dealing with a muti-game suspension. Despite playing a somewhat consistent role, Ighodaro has been unable to move the needle. He has scored double-digit points only twice and is averaging 3.8 points and 3.7 rebounds in 15.9 minutes per game.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Back in bench role
Ighodaro isn't in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Pelicans.
The Suns will roll with Mason Plumlee at center for the second time in three games since Jusuf Nurkic (thigh) went on the shelf, sending Ighodaro to the bench after posting a decent final line Tuesday against the Spurs. The Marquette product is averaging 3.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 16.5 minutes over his last four appearances as a reserve.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Returns to bench Wednesday
Ighodaro is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against New York.
Ighodaro returns to the second unit with Royce O'Neale and Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) entering the starting lineup. Ighodaro has flashed talent and athleticism en route to averaging 7.8 points and 6.0 rebounds in 24.2 minutes across his last five games, so it'll be interesting to monitor his usage from this juncture onward.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Respectable line in starting role
Ighodaro had 12 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Monday's 109-99 loss to Orlando.
With Bradley Beal (calf) and Kevin Durant (calf) both sidelined, the Suns have been looking for answers on the wings. Ighodaro got his first crack with the first unit Monday, joining fellow rookie Ryan Dunn, who's been a mainstay in Durant's absence. Ighodaro made his presence felt and could earn more playing time moving forward, especially if Beal remains out. However, Ighodaro's role will likely fluctuate, especially with Grayson Allen and Josh Okogie playing well off the bench.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Starting Monday
Ighodaro will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Magic.
With Kevin Durant (calf) and Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) out, Mason Plumlee and Ighodaro will shoulder the workload in the frontcourt. The rookie has carved out a significant role over his last five outings, during which he has averaged 6.4 points and 5.0 rebounds while shooting 60.0 percent from the field across 19.8 minutes per game.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Season-high 11 points in loss
Ighodaro finished with 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 loss to Minnesota.
The rookie big man posted his first career game with double-digit points while surpassing Jusuf Nurkic in playing time Sunday. Ighodaro has begun to carve out a much more significant role with the club, and he has tallied 10-plus minutes in each of his last five appearances. Through nine regular-season games, the Marquette product has averaged 4.0 points and 3.8 rebounds across 14.4 minutes per game.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Grabs seven boards in reserve role
Ighodaro contributed six points (1-2 FG, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one block in 27 minutes during Friday's 99-83 loss to the Thunder.
Jusuf Nurkic is off to an inconsistent start, and he was a step slower in the loss while dealing with an ankle injury. While it's still early in the season, Ighodaro is making an impact with the second unit and proving worthy of his second-round selection last season. The Marquette product is unlikely to ascend up the depth chart, but he's an apt fill-in for Nurkic in the event of another injury.
