Suns’ Bradley Beal available for Suns’ NBA Cup game against Spurs
Dec 3, 2024, 1:08 PM
Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal is listed as available to play Tuesday against the visiting San Antonio Spurs after missing the last game with a left calf strain.
Beal went 8 of 14 for 17 points in a 127-117 loss to the Brooklyn Nets last Wednesday but appeared to injure his ankle in the fourth quarter. It was just his second game back in the lineup after being sidelined for five games with a calf injury.
Beal was then listed as questionable for “left calf injury management” before he was ruled out Saturday in a win over the Golden State Warriors.
