Ish Wainright - Remains out Friday Wainright (personal) will miss Friday's game against the Trail Blazers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Wainright has not played yet this season, as he is dealing with personal issues currently and had a back problem earlier in the year. His next chance to suit up will come Saturday in a rematch with the Trail Blazers.

Cameron Payne - Late addition to injury report Payne (foot) is listed as probable for Friday's contest against Portland, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Payne is currently dealing with left foot soreness and was a late addition to the Suns' injury report. If the 28-year-old is unable to play Friday, his next chance to see the court will be Saturday against the Trail Blazers. Expect Damion Lee and Landry Shamet to see extended minutes Friday if Payne isn't available.

Torrey Craig - Expected to play Friday Craig is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a left heel contusion, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Craig was able to play through the injury in Tuesday's win over the Timberwolves, contributing four points, four rebounds and one assist in 12 minutes of action. Barring any setbacks in pregame, he should be available in a reserve capacity against Portland.
NOVEMBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Deandre Ayton - Gets upgraded to probable Ayton (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Ayton suffered a left ankle injury during last Friday's win over the Pelicans and was expected to miss at least a week to recover. The 24-year-old would end up missing only two games if he is able to return Friday. Expect Bismack Biyombo to start once again if Ayton can't play, while Jock Landale would likely see extended minutes off the bench.

Deandre Ayton - Returns to practice Suns coach Monty said Ayton (ankle) went through a full practice Thursday but is still questionable for Friday's game versus the Trail Blazers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic...
Impact Ayton has missed the Suns' last two games due to a left ankle sprain he suffered last Friday. The 24-year-old big man was expected to be out at least a week, which would mean a return Friday would put him on the earliest end of that timetable. Ayton's return should lead to a decrease in minutes for Bismack Biyombo and Jock Landale.

Mikal Bridges - Pours in 19 points Bridges contributed 19 points (7-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 38 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 victory over Minnesota.
Impact Bridges delivered his second-best scoring total of the season Tuesday night. Phoenix's starters are successfully absorbing production left by Deandre Ayton (ankle). With players like Bridges and Cameron Johnson stepping up, the Suns should be able to weather the absence through the rest of the week.
NOVEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Chris Paul - Puts up 12-assist double-double Paul provided 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds, 12 assists and three steals across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 victory over the Timberwolves.
Impact Paul continues to roll with superior assist numbers, and when his shot is dialed in, he's an elite fantasy target. To achieve better scoring, Paul usually depends on an off night from Devin Booker to get involved. Booker only scored 18 points Tuesday, and Paul picked up the slack.
NOVEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Cameron Johnson - Scintillating effort in win Johnson accumulated 29 points (10-17 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 victory over the Timberwo...
Impact Deandre Ayton's (ankle) injury shuffled up the lineup last week and thrust Johnson into a starting role. While Bismack Biyombo has filled Ayton's gap, Johnson has absorbed the frontcourt production, adding a dimension Ayton doesn't have. Johnson's floor-stretching, long-range jumper is one of the best facets of his game, and he used it to full advantage with seven threes in the victory.
