Remains out Tuesday Payne (wrist) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against the 76ers.
Impact Payne picked up a wrist injury at the end of January that was expected to sideline him for at least two weeks. However, Monday marked the end of the two weeks, but there still isn't an update on his status. He's slated to miss his ninth straight game Wednesday and could miss all three games this week. In his extended absence, Elfrid Payton and Landry Shamet should continue to see increased roles.

Sidelined for two more weeks Payne (wrist) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Payne picked up a right wrist sprain during Saturday's clash with the Pacers, which will cost him at least the next two weeks. The team should have a better idea of when he'll be able to return to action at that time, which looks to be around Feb. 7. Elfrid Payton and Landry Shamet stand to see an increased role over the next two weeks, during which the Suns play eight games.

Suffers wrist injury Payne injured his right wrist Saturday against the Pacers and will not return to the game.
Impact The exact nature of the injury and Payne's availability for Monday's game against the Jazz are not yet clear. His absence will likely lead to more minutes for Elfrid Payton as the backup point guard.

Scores in double figures off bench Payne finished Thursday's 109-101 victory over the Mavericks with 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and one steal in 19 minutes.
Impact Payne has scored in double figures in four straight games. During that stretch, he's averaging 13.5 points, 3.5 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 24.3 minutes. His fantasy potential is obviously limited by Devin Booker and Chris Paul contributing the majority of production, but Payne is certainly capable of making big splashes in limited playing time. The combination of a high-ceiling and low-floor makes him a risky, though intriguing, fantasy option.

Puts up 20 points in reserve role Payne ended Sunday's 135-108 victory over the Pistons with 20 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and five assists in 31 minutes.
Impact After two subpar games, Payne followed up an 11-point effort against the Pacers with his best total of the month. Despite playing almost exclusively with the second unit, Payne currently averages 20.4 minutes per game, which is close to his career average. He's one COVID-19 case away from more playing time, but his fantasy impact only has value in deep leagues.
