Bradley Beal - Still out Sunday Beal (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pistons, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Beal will miss a seventh straight game to begin the season while he recovers from low back spasms, but he seemingly took a step forward by going through a rigorous workout in pregame warmups ahead of the Suns' loss to the 76ers on Saturday, per Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports. After the Suns conclude their back-to-back set Sunday, the Suns will have two days off before returning to action Wednesday in Chicago. If Beal is able to practice in some capacity Tuesday, he could have a chance at making his Phoenix debut against the Bulls.

Devin Booker - Out Sunday with calf strain The Suns have ruled Booker out for Sunday's game against the Pistons with a right calf strain, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Booker had previously missed the front leg of the Suns' back-to-back set Saturday in Philadelphia with a listed left ankle sprain, but he's apparently now tending to a different injury ahead of Sunday's game. Though Suns head coach Frank Vogel expressed optimism Saturday that Booker could be available for the second game of the back-to-back, the new diagnosis for the star guard's injury perhaps puts him at risk of missing additional time beyond Sunday. Bradley Beal (back) has also been ruled out and will have to wait to make his Suns debut, so look for Eric Gordon and Grayson Allen to serve as Phoenix's starters in the backcourt once again Sunday.

Bradley Beal - Progressing, but likely out Sunday Beal (back) went through an extensive 20-minute pregame workout Saturday, but he's unlikely to make his season debut Sunday against the Pistons, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republi...
Impact The Suns have yet to release an updated injury report ahead of the second leg of a back-to-back set, but Beal looks like he'll miss a seventh consecutive game to begin the 2023-24 campaign when Phoenix tips off in Detroit at 3 p.m. ET on Sunday. Though head coach Frank Vogel said that there has been "no change" in Beal's status following his pregame workout prior to Saturday's 112-100 loss to the 76ers, the 30-year-old guard at least appears to be inching toward his Suns debut. With two off days following Sunday's game, Beal could have a more realistic chance at suiting up in Wednesday's contest in Chicago if he's able to get in a practice beforehand.

Jordan Goodwin - Offensive woes persist Goodwin posted six points (2-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two blocks and two steals across 16 minutes during Saturday's 112-100 loss to Philadelphia.
Impact Goodwin's workload has fluctuated throughout the early phase of Phoenix's season, and he's been unable to settle into any scoring or facilitating rhythm. The opportunity to step up amid absences for Devin Booker (foot) and Bradley Beal (back) represents Goodwin's ideal scenario, but he can be removed from fantasy radar until he consistently demonstrates the ability to do so.

Jusuf Nurkic - Inefficiency continues Nurkic finished Saturday's 112-100 loss to Philadelphia with 11 points (4-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 23 minutes.
Impact Nurkic operated in a far larger role Saturday after attempting just five shots on Thursday. His involvement was a focal point for Phoenix amid absences for Devin Booker (foot) and Bradley Beal (back). Shooting 38.0 percent from the field and 20.0 percent from beyond the arc through six games marks a distinct failure to capitalize on the enlarged opportunity, but compiling a 17:4 AST:TO ratio over his last four games is a silver lining indicative of the connective role that Nurkic can have when Phoenix is healthy.

Kevin Durant - Heavy burden as lone musketeer Durant closed Saturday's 112-100 loss to the 76ers with 31 points (9-20 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 12-14 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 36 minutes. He also had f...
Impact Durant was the only Suns' player to exceed 13 points on Saturday. Durant's production has been impervious to the absences of Devin Booker (foot) and Bradley Beal (back), but Phoenix is on a three-game losing streak and the heavy burden is likely beginning to tax Durant. Despite facilitating normally being a quality secondary skill, Durant has compiled an 11:13 AST:TO ratio over the last three games.
