Phoenix Suns guardGrayson Allen(hamstring) has been ruled for Wednesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings due to soreness in his right hamstring. Bradley Beal (calf) will also be out with a calf injury. Devin Booker will be leaned on offensively with a depleted Suns rotation against the Kings, while extra minutes could exist for rookie Ryan Dunn and veteran Josh Okogie.
Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reported that Phoenix Suns guard/forward Bradley Beal (calf) is out for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings due to a calf injury. He will be joined on the sidelines by Kevin Durant (calf), who is also dealing with a calf issue. Additionally, Grayson Allen (hamstring) is listed as a game-time decision due to a hamstring injury, leaving the Suns rotation potentially very thin.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is off the injury report heading into Wednesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings. The 30-year-old injured his ankle when these clubs met on Sunday, keeping him off the floor for Tuesday's win over the Utah Jazz. Mason Plumlee got the start in that one, finishing with eight points and seven assists. But now that Nurkic is back on the floor, Plumlee's fantasy ceiling will come crashing down. As far as Nurkic is concerned, he's a must-start, especially with Kevin Durant (calf) on the shelf, meaning more scoring opportunities will be up for grabs.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday night's game against the Utah Jazz. Nurkic injured his left ankle during Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Mason Plumlee will start in Nurkic's place. Plumlee will make a viable fantasy option for those in need at the center position, especially from a rebounds perspective. Plumlee grabbed 11 boards while Nurkic missed the second half of Phoenix's game against the Kings. Points may be more sporadic, but both fantasy managers and DFS players should take a look at adding Plumlee into their lineups.
Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday night's game against the Utah Jazz. Nurkic is dealing with left ankle soreness. The 30-year-old injured his ankle in Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings and was ruled out after the first half. Nurkic is averaging 9.9 PPG and 10.2 RPG. If he is unable to suit up his presence on the boards will certainly be felt by a Phoenix team who's already missing Kevin Durant. Mason Plumlee will be in line to get the start if Nurkic's ankle does not cooperate. Plumlee would make a very solid fill-in option for fantasy managers and could be a sneaky DFS play as well.
