On Thursday evening, the Phoenix Suns will play their second game of the regular season when they face off against LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers in California. 

The Suns are coming off an impressive 108-104 victory over the Golden State Warriors at the Chase Center in San Francisco (on Tuesday). 

For Thursday's showdown with the Lakers, the Suns could be without one of their best players, as Devin Booker is listed as doubtful due to a foot injury.

The Suns have one of the best rosters in the league with Booker, Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, so they will be expected to compete for the 2024 NBA Championship. 

Last year, they lost in the second round of the NBA playoffs to the Denver Nuggets (in six games). 

It takes everyone.
