Phoenix Suns DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

The Phoenix Suns announced veteran guardMonte Morris(back) is unavailable for Wednesday's contest against the Houston Rockets. Morris is set to miss his 14th consecutive contest due to a back injury. The 29-year-old out of action won't affect fantasy this evening since he's only averaging 13.1 minutes and 4.9 points per game across 40 outings this season. His next opportunity to return to the floor is on Friday versus the Sacramento Kings.

According to Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix, Phoenix Suns centerNick Richards (ankle) is unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with the Houston Rockets. Richards will be out of action for the first time since joining the Suns due to soreness in his right ankle. With the 27-year-old sidelined, Mason Plumlee will likely be assigned more minutes to support the club's frontcourt for Wednesday's game. Richard's next chance to suit comes on Friday versus the Kings.

According to Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV, Phoenix Suns guardGrayson Allen(foot) will be unavailable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Allen will be out of action due to left foot soreness. His next chance to return to the Suns rotation is on Friday against the Kings. Royce O'Neale and Tyus Jones will likely see extra minutes with Allen out. Jones is a solid streaming option for this evening as he finished with 12 points, three rebounds, seven assists and one steal during 29 minutes during Monday's 120-118 loss to Memphis.

Charlotte Hornets center Jusuf Nurkic (shin) will play on Wednesday against Atlanta. The 30-year-old has missed time sporadically over the last few weeks because of various issues. However, a shin contusion put his availability in jeopardy versus the Hawks. With that said, Mark Williams is available, meaning Nurkic will have a tough time doing anything meaningful for fantasy managers.

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (calf) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Beal is set to return to action after sitting out their last game due to a calf injury. There is no word on Beal being limited, so fantasy managers should expect the star guard to have his normal role in the rotation. Tyus Jones will head back to the bench and will lose streaming value with Beal back in the mix. Fantasy managers can go ahead and get Beal back in their lineups ahead of Wednesday's game.
