Suns Reveal Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant Status vs Warriors
PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns have announced the following injury statuses when they host the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday.
Bradley Beal AVAILABLE
For the first time since Nov. 12, Bradley Beal is available after dealing with lower back issues that have plagued the former Wizards star since early in preseason action. He's played in just three games for Phoenix thus far.
Kevin Durant OUT
*Update: Durant has now been ruled out*
Durant has missed only a handful of games due to injury, though his recent ankle problem was suffered in the late stages of their loss to the Lakers last week, which saw him miss Friday's contest against the Sacramento Kings.
If Durant is healthy, the Suns will see their Big 3 on the court for the first time all season.
Grayson Allen and Nassir Little OUT
Allen strained his groin against the Lakers and also missed Friday's contest while Little played just four minutes before fracturing his nose and suffering a concussion against the Kings.
The Suns have been awfully banged up as of late, though Devin Booker wasn't looking for any excuses.
“It is part of it. I mean, you have to deal with it. It is part of the NBA season," Booker said. "We are not going to be the only team to deal with injuries throughout. The good teams find a way to win when they are down players."
Phoenix has lost their last four-of-five entering Tuesday.
