Phoenix Suns

The Phoenix Suns are getting another shot at hosting a Western Conference foe on national television this week against the Golden State Warriors.

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a strain in his left hamstring.

Nuggets center Nikola Jokic said Deandre Ayton is "amazing," and the Suns center said earning that praise was "amazing," too.

While the expectations last year for the Phoenix Suns were much lower, they also fizzled after a hot start to the season.

With two days of practice following a day off, the Phoenix Suns have time to rest their banged up players and clean up details that have bit them lately.

After a brutal loss on Friday in a game they should have won against the Denver Nuggets, the Phoenix Suns entered round two on Saturday with the odds against them.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker is out for Saturday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets, according to ArizonaSports.com's Kellan Olson.

In a game where the Phoenix Suns' starters finally clicked together offensively, it all fell apart when the game was on the line.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker left Friday night's 130-126 OT loss to the Denver Nuggets during overtime and did not return.

Nuggets F Michael Porter Jr. will be back in the fold against the Suns on Friday after being out due to health and safety protocols since Dec. 29.

Phoenix Suns rookie Jalen Smith hasn't played since Dec. 26 due to a sprained ankle and a stint on the NBA's health and safety protocols list.

The Memphis Grizzlies are the latest NBA team that will have a coronavirus-related break, as the team's next three contests will be postponed.

Deandre Ayton's tagline hadn't come to fruition with the Phoenix Suns yet until a dominant performance Wednesday in a Suns win.

The Phoenix Suns' last opponent, the Memphis Grizzlies, canceled their game Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers due to contact tracing protocols.

'They looked at trading him last summer, it didn't work out,' ESPN analyst Dave Pasch told Arizona Sports' Doug & Wolf on Wednesday.

Starting lineup changes always create a stir despite the magnitude of the switch varying case by case, which brings us to the new group for the Suns.

Deandre Ayton will remain a focal point. As the Suns build the Devin Booker-Chris Paul relationship, they need him to be a paint presence.

The Phoenix Suns will want to see a trend develop and another fade after Monday's 108-104 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.

Phoenix Suns head coach Monty Williams teased a potential starting lineup change after his team's last game, and he has pulled the trigger.

The Phoenix Suns are in Memphis ahead of Monday's game against the Grizzlies, their first in a week after a run of three straight games being canceled.
