The Phoenix Suns are getting a major boost for their crucial Play-In Tournament showdown. With their season on the line Tuesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers, the Suns have removed star guard Devin Booker and key contributor Jalen Green from the injury report, signaling their return to the lineup.
This news comes as a significant relief for Phoenix, which secured the No. 7 seed with a 45-37 record. Booker and Green, along with center Mark Williams, all sat out the regular-season finale against the Oklahoma City Thunder but are now cleared to play. Their availability provides a much-needed offensive spark and depth as the team aims to punch its ticket to the playoffs and a first-round series against the San Antonio Spurs.
While the roster is nearly at full strength, one question mark remains. Sharpshooter Grayson Allen is listed as questionable with left hamstring soreness, potentially missing his second straight game. If Allen is sidelined, veterans like Royce O’Neale and Jordan Goodwin are expected to see expanded roles in the rotation.
Tip-off for this high-stakes Western Conference Play-In game is set for 10:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday from Phoenix, with the broadcast on Amazon Prime Video. With their key players back, the Suns are poised for a thrilling home matchup as they fight to keep their championship aspirations alive.
