Suns forward Torrey Craig is out for Game 3 of Phoenix’s Western Conference semifinals matchup against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday night, head coach Monty Williams said pregame.

Craig is dealing with a right elbow contusion.

The forward has played just three minutes in each of the past two games of the series.

The injury could have been sustained in a Game 2 win over Dallas, when Craig went down hard while trying to block Maverick and former Sun Marquese Chriss.

Craig recorded a rebound and a steal in the win.
