Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal exited Tuesday’s win over the Utah Jazz with left calf tightness and did not return.

After committing a foul at the 7:19 mark in the fourth quarter, Beal went to the locker room and would not return to the bench for the rest of the Suns’ 120-112 win in Utah.

Beal had 24 points, three rebounds, four assists, two steals and a block in 29 minutes. It was unclear when the injury occurred.

“We’ll just see how he does,” Suns coach Mike Budenholzer told reporters postgame. “How he wakes up. What the medical team has for us tomorrow.”

The Suns guard was not on the injury report for Tuesday’s game despite suffering two injuries on Sunday.

He had DeMar DeRozan roll into his left knee during Sunday’s loss to the Sacramento Kings and also tweaked an ankle. In addition, he has been dealing with a right elbow issue.

Beal has played in nine of the Suns’ 11 games this season despite his string of injuries.

The Suns are back in action Wednesday against the Kings with tip at 8 p.m. on 98.7 and the Arizona Sports app.
