Bol Bol - Won't play against Dallas Bol (foot) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Mavericks, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Bol's absence streak will extend to six games Wednesday while dealing with right foot soreness. His next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Indiana.

Eric Gordon - Questionable for Wednesday Gordon (wrist) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Dallas, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Impact Gordon is at risk of missing his second consecutive game due to right wrist soreness. The 35-year-old's minutes were mostly absorbed by Grayson Allen and Keita Bates-Diop on Monday, although Saban Lee also entered the rotation.

Keita Bates-Diop - Gets double-digit minutes again Bates-Diop tallied five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two assists, one rebound, one steal and one block across 18 minutes in Monday's 115-113 win over the Bulls.
Impact After he looked to be on the fringes of the Phoenix rotation last week, Bates-Diop has now logged double-digit minutes off the bench in consecutive games. He looks to have at least temporarily reclaimed a spot on the second unit, though Bates-Diop could find himself as the odd man out once Eric Gordon (wrist) and Bol Bol (foot) -- both of whom were sidelined Monday -- are back in action.

Bradley Beal - Records 18/5/4 line against Chicago Beal posted 18 points (7-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and five assists in 38 minutes during Monday's 115-113 win over the Bulls.
Impact Beal's scoring output was good for second on the Suns behind Kevin Durant's 43 points. Beal also finished tied for second on the team with five dimes, marking the fourth time in his past five contests that he's posted that exact number of assists. The veteran guard's numbers are well below his prime years in Washington, though he can still put the ball in the bucket, as he has six performances of 20-plus points over 11 games since the start of the new year.

Drew Eubanks - Posts well-rounded line Monday Eubanks provided 10 points (4-4 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and four assists in 22 minutes during Monday's 115-113 win over Chicago.
Impact Eubanks hadn't played more than 16 minutes in any contest over his previous five games coming into Monday, but he led Phoenix reserves with 22 minutes against the Bulls. The big man earned the opportunity with a perfect 4-for-4 mark from the field and a team-leading eight boards. The rebound total was Eubanks' highest since Halloween, and this was only his second game with double-digit scoring since Dec. 17, so there's no need for fantasy managers in most formats to seek him out on the waiver wire for the time being.

Kevin Durant - Drains game-winner Monday Durant finished Monday's 115-113 victory over the Bulls with 43 points (16-32 FG, 6-15 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal across 41 minutes.
Impact Durant had a muted performance in the first half, scoring just 13 points on 4-for-13 shooting while missing all six of his attempts from three-point range. However, the reigning Western Conference Player of the Week came alive after halftime, going 12-of-19 following the break en route to 30 points. He saved his most impactful moment for last, knocking down the game-winning 17-footer with 1.6 seconds remaining despite having to adjust the shot to avoid the reach of multiple Chicago defenders. Durant's big second half helped him post his second straight 40-point game, the first time he has reached that mark in consecutive contests this season.

Grayson Allen - Good to go Allen (knee) is available for Monday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Allen was being considered a true game-time decision leading up to Monday's contest, but the team's medical staff has since given him the green light to run the floor. He's scored in double digits in each of his last four matchups, averaging 18.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks over this stretch.
