Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) has been listed as probable for the team's game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night. The superstar forward was able to return from his right hamstring strain on Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. He picked up right where left off after tallying 23 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, and one block across 36 minutes on the floor. Since he should be on the court again on Monday, fantasy managers should deploy him in lineups regardless of format or league size. He's returned first-round fantasy value so far this season despite missing seven games so far.
Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) is questionable ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran has stayed relatively healthy for most of the season. But he's missed the last three games because of a strained hamstring. That said, he is averaging some of the best numbers of his career this season, logging 29.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 1.1 blocks while shooting an impressive 47.7% from deep. Of course, not having Durant in the lineup isn't an ideal situation for the Suns. However, until he's back on the floor, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal should continue to get additional scoring opportunities. At the same time, Grayson Allen could continue to see an uptick offensively if KD misses a fourth consecutive game.
Phoenix Suns forward/center Bol Bol suffered a right ankle sprain in Friday's matchup against Miami, exiting the action after logging 10 minutes. The 24-year-old finished the night with four points, three rebounds, and one block. Bol has recently broken into the Suns' rotation and had put in a pair of solid performances before getting injured on Friday. He's been benefiting from Kevin Durant's (hamstring) absence. Durant is reportedly close to returning, so Bol's resurrection likely won't last long, even if he avoided serious injury on Friday.
Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) remains out on Friday versus the Miami Heat. He's already missed two games because of a right hamstring strain. However, his questionable designation during the day on Friday suggests he's at least moving in a favorable direction. Nonetheless, with Eric Gordon (knee) also sidelined against Miami, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal should remain the primary offensive contributors for Phoenix. Additionally, there's room for Grayson Allen and Chimezie Metu to get more involved.
Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. The All-Star forward is working his way back from a right hamstring strain. The good news is, Durant was able to get through a limited practice session on Thursday. That means, the veteran forward is trending in the right direction. If he plays, Chimezie Metu would lose basically all his streaming value. Devin Booker and Bradley Beal will be the focal points on offense until Durant is ready to play. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Friday for another update.
