It will be a while before Phoenix Suns forward Frank Kaminsky sees action on the court again as the team announced on Saturday morning he will be sidelined indefinitely with a right patella stress fracture.

Kaminsky will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks and there is no timetable set for his return.

He missed the last three games due to the injury.

After averaging 24.1 minutes per game through the first few months of the season, Kaminsky’s time has been scaled back as of late.

He’s averaging 13.3 minutes in the his last five games and hasn’t been part of the starting five since the Dec. 16 loss against Portland.

Kaminsky is averaging 11.0 points per game with 4.9 rebounds and 2.2 assists.

He signed a two-year, $9.77 million deal with the Suns over the summer.
