Phoenix Suns

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This comes after Booker exited early on Thursday due to a groin injury. The severity of the issue is unclear, but Booker will at least miss Saturday's game. His next chance to get on the court will be Monday versus the Denver Nuggets. The Suns will likely use a committee approach to help fill the void left by the superstar guard. Out of everyone, Royce O'Neale and Grayson Allen figure to gain the most fantasy value. Both players are possible streaming options with Booker unavailable on Saturday. O'Neale has been playing well lately and is the slightly better short term option between the two.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) won't return to Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Booker played 25 minutes, finishing with 17 points, six assists, and one steal. Without question, this is another tough blow for Phoenix, considering the team has been without Bradley Beal and Kevin Durant at times during the 2024-25 campaign. But now it could be Booker's turn to go on the shelf. With that said, he'll likely undergo further testing. However, if the groin tightness keeps him off the floor for Saturday's matchup with the visiting Pistons, Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale should see more minutes.

On Thursday, Phoenix Suns guard/forwardBradley Beal(knee) is available to suit up against the Indiana Pacers. Beal has missed two consecutive contests with swelling in his left knee. He will likely be back in the starting five in place of veteran Royce O'Neale. Before missing the Sun's last two games, the former Washington Wizard averaged 18.1 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 32.3 minutes during his previous 10 outings.
