With a long road trip looming, the Phoenix Suns (4-6) can
not really afford to drop Friday’s game against the New
Jersey Nets (2-9).

The game got a little tougher late Friday, though, as Alvin
Gentry announced that both Steve Nash and Grant Hill will
not be playing.

Nash, who has an injured back, and Hill, who hurt his knee
Thursday, will be replaced in the starting lineup by Ronnie
Price and Shannon Brown.
