Overview
- Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal will miss the next two weeks due to a right ankle sprain, with a reevaluation scheduled for the start of January.
- Beal's injury occurred during the first quarter of Friday’s game against the Knicks, marking his third game back from a previous lower back sprain.
- Since being acquired from Washington this summer, Beal has averaged 14.7 points, 3.2 assists, and 3.3 rebounds over six games this season.
- With Beal sidelined, the Suns (14-12) will rely more heavily on Kevin Durant and Devin Booker.
- The Suns' 'big three' of Beal, Durant, and Booker have only played one game together this season due to Beal's recurring injuries.
