Impact Gordon is expected to return to action Friday after missing Phoenix's previous two contests with a left knee contusion. If the veteran guard is upgraded to available, he should serve as one of the Suns' primary options off the bench in the backcourt.

Nassir Little - Gets garbage-time run in return Little (knee) played the final 2:58 of Thursday's 127-112 loss to the Celtics, finishing with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound.
Impact Little was available to play for the first time since late February after a two-plus-week absence due to left knee inflammation, but as had been the case prior to him missing time with the injury, he wasn't a part of head coach Frank Vogel's rotation. He didn't check into the game until less than three minutes remained in the contest, when Boston had already built a 18-point lead and Phoenix had essentially conceded the win.

Devin Booker - Posts 23 points vs. Celtics Booker racked up 23 points (9-20 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and seven assists across 38 minutes during Thursday's 127-112 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Booker missed the first contest against Boston on March 9 due to a right ankle sprain that forced him to miss four games. He suited up Thursday and played 38 minutes for a second consecutive time as he led the Suns in scoring. Head coach Frank Vogel could opt to limit Booker's minutes in Phoenix's next game, given that the Suns play the Hornets on the second night of a back-to-back.

He's gone 4-for-5 from deep in two consecutive games and is shooting 50.0 percent from three over his last five games. Allen is averaging career highs in shooting with 13.1 points on 50.4 percent field-goal shooting and a league-best 48.2 percent from three.
