Phoenix Suns

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen has agreed on a four-year, $70 million contract extension that includes a player option. The deal keeps Allen out of unrestricted free agency this summer and rewards him for a career-best season after joining the Suns as part of last offseason's blockbuster Damian Lillard trade. The 28-year-old three-and-D wing started all but one of his 75 games in the desert, returning top-75 fantasy numbers in nine-category leagues via averages of 13.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 2.7 three-pointers on an NBA-best 46.1% shooting clip from downtown. Allen should continue to be an integral contributor during Phoenix's postseason run.

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal had an outstanding game in Sunday's regular-season finale against Minnesota, leading all scorers with 36 points in a 125-106 win. The Suns were in a must-win situation to qualify directly into the 2024 NBA Playoffs and did the business in impressive fashion with Beal leading the way. He was a red-hot 6-for-6 from three-point range and shot 14-for-21 overall while collecting six rebounds, five assists, two steals, and one block. Beal's debut year in Phoenix was a disappointment for many, but he came up huge for the Suns in the final couple of regular-season games. The three-time All-Star will now be expected to deliver in the playoffs as well. Beal has averaged 23.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.5 steals across his previous five post-season campaigns.

Washington Wizards point guard Tyus Jones (back) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. He will be sidelined for the 15th consecutive game because of a back injury. The Wizards only have 15 wins this season, and since there is not much to play for, it would not be surprising if Jones has already played his last game of the year. Washington's final matchup will be played on Sunday against the Boston Celtics, which will be his final chance to return.

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The big man was dealing with a calf issue, but now picked up an ankle injury. If he sits out, Drew Eubanks figures to move into the starting five. He hasn't exactly done much during his starts recently. Fantasy managers should be able to find a better streaming option on a 14-game slate.

Phoenix Suns forward Grayson Allen (hip) will play on Friday versus Minnesota. He is dealing with hip soreness, keeping him off the floor for Wednesday's win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, Allen will return for a pivotal meeting with the Timberwolves, although there's a chance he could be limited. At any rate, with Allen back on the floor, Royce O'Neale, who had 17 points off 5-for-7 shooting from deep versus Cleveland, will head back to the bench. Yet, O'Neale should still get enough work to remain relevant for deep DFS contests.
