Phoenix Suns DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (nose) made an appearance on the injury report due to a nasal fracture but he's listed as available for the Tuesday night matchup against the Sacramento Kings. Fortunately, Beal hasn't had to miss a game since December 27, and it doesn't look like that streak will come to an end. The 30-year-old has put together some big-time games over the last few outings including a 30-point and 43-point outing against the Jazz and Wizards respectively. Since Beal will be on the court, he remains a must-start in all fantasy formats and should be able to find a rhythm against a weaker defensive squad in the Kings.

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Monte Morris will be available to make his team debut on Monday versus the Clippers. The veteran was picked up last week from Detroit in exchange for Troy Brown Jr., Shake Milton, and a second-round draft pick. Morris was hurt at the start of the campaign and featured just eight times for the Pistons. He posted 4.5 points and 1.3 assists in 11.3 minutes off the bench. Morris is still working his way back into full rhythm, and his numbers should improve, but only an injury to Mike Conley would make him a viable fantasy option.

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (ankle) is considered probable for Saturday's contest against Golden State. The veteran star is nursing a right ankle sprain, but he was able to log 37 minutes despite the injury on Thursday versus Utah, and it looks like he will be good to go for Saturday's big matchup. Beal had hit some outstanding form lately, averaging 32.7 points per game over the last three contests. He's also bagged six steals over the stretch while delivering 5.3 assists.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) isn't listed on the injury report heading into Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The 27-year-old didn't suit up on Thursday versus the Utah Jazz. However, he's played heavy minutes all season, so he likely needed some rest. Booker has averaged a career-high 27.9 points throughout the 2023-24 campaign. With his return to the lineup on Saturday, Eric Gordon will presumably head back to the bench and take most of his fantasy upside with him.

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Suns, Grizzlies, and Nets completed a three-team trade ahead of Thursday's deadline. Notably, Brooklyn will send forward Royce O'Neale to Phoenix. The 30-year-old has played for two teams throughout his career, the Jazz and Nets. He's averaged 6.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists while shooting 38.1% from deep. O'Neale has been a top trade target for many teams around the National Basketball Association for a while now, so the move shouldn't surprise anyone. Although he likely won't be a routine fantasy contributor, he'll provide Phoenix with much-needed depth. That said, O'Neale will probably start here or there moving ahead, meaning there should be some streaming opportunities for fantasy managers.
