Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Iffy for Friday vs. OKC
Nurkic is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder due to a left ankle sprain.
Nurkic missed Tuesday's win over Utah due to the lingering ankle injury, though he was able to suit up in the second leg of the back-to-back set in Wednesday's loss to the Kings. If the big man is unable to suit up Friday, Mason Plumlee will likely get the starting nod with Oso Ighodaro receiving an uptick in playing time off the bench.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Deemed questionable for Friday
Allen (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder.
Allen is in jeopardy of missing his second straight outing due to right hamstring soreness. If the sharpshooter joins Bradley Beal (calf) on the sideline Friday, the Suns could take an extended look at Josh Okogie, TyTy Washington and Damion Lee on the wing.

Suns' Bradley Beal: Ruled out for Friday
Beal (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Thunder.
Beal will miss his second consecutive contest due to a left calf strain, though the injury likely won't result in a long-term absence. With the star shooting guard out and Grayson Allen (hamstring) deemed questionable, the Suns could take an extended look at Josh Okogie, TyTy Washington and Damion Lee on the wing. Beal's next chance to play will come Sunday against the Timberwolves.

Suns' Devin Booker: Modest outing in loss
Booker had 18 points (6-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 loss to the Kings.
The Suns are short-handed, and Booker has the task of making up for Kevin Durant (calf) and Bradley Beal's (calf) absence. Although he averaged 27.0 points and 8.0 assists over the first two games without Durant, he fell well short of that total Wednesday evening. Increased production from Booker is critical to Phoenix's success over the next two weeks as Durant works his way back to health.

Suns' Royce O'Neale: Struggles in starting role
O'Neale ended with five points (2-12 FG, 1-6 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one steal over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 loss to the Kings.
The Suns are struggling to account for Kevin Durant's (calf) absence. O'Neale and Ryan Dunn have both been ineffective in making up for the lost production, and the team has lost two of their last three games without Durant in the lineup. O'Neale has broken the double-digit scoring threshold only four times over the first 12 games of the season.

Suns' Josh Okogie: Helps plug holes in loss
Okogie notched 25 points (10-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two steals across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 loss to the Kings.
The Suns are flailing amid injuries to Bradley Beal (calf), Kevin Durant (calf) and Grayson Allen (hamstring), but Okogie did an excellent job in propping up the offense. He led the team in points by a wide margin and was the second-best rebounder as well. His stat line is an indication that his game is rounding into form after a hamstring injury held him out for the first eight games of the season.

Suns' Royce O'Neale: Moves into starting lineup
O'Neale will start in place of Bradley Beal (calf) on Wednesday versus Sacramento.
O'Neale profiles is an integral part of Phoenix's rotation with Beal and Grayson Allen (ankle) unavailable Wednesday. O'Neale is averaging 12.2 points and 6.8 rebounds in five contests this season in which he's logged over 25 minutes of action, although he has failed to exceed eight points on three of those occasions.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Won't play Wednesday
Allen (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Sacramento.
Allen will join Bradley Beal (calf) in street clothes Wednesday in what will be a shorthanded Phoenix rotation. Devin Booker will likely shoulder an additional offensive burden, while Josh Okogie could assume a larger role on the wing.

Suns' Bradley Beal: Sitting out Wednesday
Beal (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Sacramento, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
The Suns will be without Beal, Kevin Durant (calf) and Grayson Allen (hamstring) on the sideline, leaving Phoenix without three key rotation pieces. According to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM, Beal's availability for Friday's game in Oklahoma City is also in question, as Phoenix may prioritize resting him for a few days to ensure he returns to full health.

Suns' Jusuf Nurkic: Good to go Wednesday
Nurkic (ankle) was removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game versus Sacramento.
Nurkic was sidelined for Tuesday's win over the Jazz due to left ankle soreness after aggravating the injury in Sunday's loss to the Kings. His absence from the front end of the back-to-back set Tuesday may have been for maintenance purposes more than anything else, but Nurkic could still have his playing time monitored closely as he returns to action Wednesday.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Questionable Wednesday
Allen is questionable for Wednesday's game against Sacramento due to right hamstring soreness.
Allen logged 26 minutes in Tuesday's win over Utah without suffering any publicized injury, but he will nonetheless carry a questionable designation into Wednesday night. Bradley Beal (calf) is also questionable in an otherwise healthy Phoenix backcourt.

Suns' Bradley Beal: Dealing with a left calf contusion
Beal (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Sacramento.
Beal dealing with a contusion as opposed to any type of strain after exiting Tuesday's contest with calf tightness is a resounding positive. Nonetheless, his status for Wednesday's game is to be determined. Grayson Allen (hamstring) is also questionable.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Grabs career-high 12 rebounds
Ighodaro amassed six points (3-5 FG), 12 rebounds and two blocks across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 win over the Jazz.
Ighodaro managed to pull down a career-high 12 rebounds, sliding up in the rotation following an ankle injury to Jusuf Nurkic. Although Mason Plumlee got the starting nod, Ighodaro turned in a noteworthy performance of his own. If Nurkic misses additional time, it will be interesting to see what Ighodaro can do with extended run.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Lands four triples in win
Allen provided 15 points (5-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 win over Utah.
Allen connected on four three-pointers, continuing to serve as a scoring threat off the bench. After a breakout 2023-24 season, Allen's role has reduced following the offseason addition of Tyus Jones. Allen should continue to be a reliable perimeter threat and should any of the starting backcourt be forced to miss time, Allen would likely be the next man up.

Suns' Mason Plumlee: Shines in spot start
Plumlee produced 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 FT), 14 rebounds, two assists and one block across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 victory over the Jazz.
Plumlee turned back the clock, recording his first double-double of the season. Jusuf Nurkic was sidelined with an ongoing ankle concern, allowing Plumlee to start for the first time since joining the Suns. If Nurkic is forced to miss additional time, Plumlee is likely to hold onto the starting role, making him a nightly double-double threat, with a proven ability to provide serviceable assist numbers from the center position.
