Kevin Durant, Rockets Have "Level Of Mutual Interest"

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Rockets might be interested in trading for Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant this offseason. Charania stated both sides have a "level of mutual interest," although things could change depending on how far the Rockets advance during the playoffs. He has one year left on his current deal, so it's unknown how much Houston would be willing to give up. Still, acquiring Durant, who averaged 26.6 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.1 blocks this season, could make the Rockets an even bigger threat to clubs around the National Basketball Association. As far as his fantasy outlook is concerned, he should remain a valuable fantasy asset in 2025-26, no matter where he ends up. However, Durant will need to stay healthy, with the veteran logging only 60 games during the 2024-25 campaign.

Devin Booker Wants To Stay In Phoenix

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker is not considering abandoning ship after the team's disappointing season. "I've spoke on it plenty of times," Booker told Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic. "I'm sure the people are sick of hearing my Phoenix love story, but I'm deeply rooting into this community. I take a lot of pride in it. We've built it from the ground up before. I didn't think I'd be back in this situation, but it shows you how hard the league is. Once we get back to that championship level, I'll be able to shed light on people that it can change very quickly." While Booker is adamant about staying, the Suns are poised to undergo major changes, which could include trading Kevin Durant.

Royce O'Neale Unavailable Against Bucks

Phoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's clash against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness, initially listed as questionable before the team officially ruled him out for the game. The Suns will also be without Kevin Durant (ankle) and Bradley Beal (hamstring) on Tuesday, placing extra responsibility on players like Collin Gillespie, Tyus Jones, Grayson Allen, and Cody Martin to step up their performance.

Bradley Beal Out On Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is not ready to return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Initially, there was a chance Beal would return when the team listed him as questionable on the injury report, but he has now officially been ruled out. This will be Beal's eighth consecutive absence. Collin Gillespie will continue to have an expanded role due to Beal's absence. He has started seven consecutive games, averaging 8.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 21.9 minutes over that span.

Bradley Beal Could Return On Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) may rejoin the action on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. The three-time All-Star has been unavailable for seven games due to a hamstring strain. Beal has started working on five-on-five drills in practice, which suggests his return is near. The Suns could certainly use some help, as the team's postseason hopes are fading away, and Kevin Durant (ankle) has been ruled out for at least a week. Beal may have a larger role on offense due to Durant's absence. If he isn't ready to return on Tuesday, Collin Gillespie will continue to have extra fantasy value.

Kevin Durant Out At Least One Week

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (ankle) is expected to miss at least one week after suffering a sprained left ankle in Sunday's blowout loss to the Houston Rockets. The latest update means Durant won't suit up during the Suns' upcoming three-game road trip, beginning on Tuesday in Milwaukee. Phoenix is currently on the outside looking in for a Play-In spot. But if the Suns get eliminated before Durant is cleared to return, there's a chance he won't be back on the floor this season. With rumors regarding KD's departure this offseason, he may have already played his final game with the organization. With that said, Royce O'Neale should slide into the starting lineup, with Devin Booker expected to see a surge in production while Durant is on the shelf.

Grayson Allen Remains Out On Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Allen will now miss his sixth game in a row due to a strained left foot. The team hasn't given a timetable on his return, but his next chance to play will be against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday. The expectation is that Collin Gillespie and Royce O'Neale should see additional playing time with Allen out again. Between the two, O'Neale is the better fantasy option due to his defensive ability.

Mason Plumlee • C • Suns

Mason Plumlee Unavailable Wednesday

Phoenix Suns center Mason Plumlee (quadriceps) will not play against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night. He injured his left quadriceps on Monday against the Toronto Raptors, which will cause Plumlee to miss only his second game of the season. In his absence, Oso Ighodaro will move up in the depth chart. Ighodaro outperformed starting center Nick Richards on Monday, though it was during a blowout victory. The 22-year-old has averaged 6.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks in 22.4 minutes across five appearances in March.

Grayson Allen Continues To Sit Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls, marking his fifth consecutive absence. The veteran sharpshooter is trying to recover from a left foot strain. The Suns are also without Bradley Beal (hamstring), prompting head coach Mike Budenholzer to experiment with Collin Gillespie in the starting unit on Monday versus the Toronto Raptors. With Allen and Beal unavailable, Tyus Jones, Royce O'Neale, and Cody Martin are also given additional playing time.

Bradley Beal To Sit Out At Least One Week Of Action

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) will be unavailable for at least one week. The former All-Star sat out Monday's contest against the Toronto Raptors due to a left hamstring injury, and Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer noted that Beal will be re-evaluated in one week. With Beal sidelined, Collin Gillespie received the starting nod for the first time in his NBA career. However, he was not very impactful in the game, finishing a blowout victory with three points, two rebounds, and two assists in 16 minutes. Tyus Jones probably has the most to gain from Beal's absence, considering he rolled with the starters for the first few months of the season before Beal bumped him to the bench.

Grayson Allen Sits Out Fourth Straight Game

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (foot) will remain on the shelf for Monday's encounter with the Toronto Raptors. He is nursing a left foot strain. Due to Allen's absence, Collin Gillespie has entered the rotation lately, while Ryan Dunn and Royce O'Neale are also in a position to log a few extra shifts. Following a lengthy slump, Dunn has averaged 14.5 points and 3.5 steals over the past two games. O'Neale provides more consistent production, though his fantasy potential is limited.

Bradley Beal Sidelined On Monday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) will not suit up for Monday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. He has been ruled out due to a left hamstring strain Beal suffered in Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Phoenix will also be without Grayson Allen (foot) against the Raptors, so Tyus Jones and Collin Gillespie should get more run-outs in the backcourt. As a proven veteran in the league, Jones is the superior fantasy option, even though he has experienced a rocky season in Phoenix.

Cody Martin • SF • Suns

Cody Martin Cleared To Return Friday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Cody Martin (abdomen) will be active on Friday against the Sacramento Kings. He is set to end a lengthy absence, having last taken the court on Jan. 24 when he was still a member of the Charlotte Hornets. The 29-year-old has been dealing with a sports hernia. Considering the team's struggles, Phoenix must be delighted to get some extra help in the form of Martin, through he is not expected to have a significant impact in fantasy basketball.

Grayson Allen • SF • Suns

Grayson Allen Not Playing Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (foot) will miss Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings due to a left foot strain. With the sharpshooter sidelined, Ryan Dunn and Tyus Jones are expected to see increased minutes. On the season, Allen has averaged 10.7 points per game and is shooting 43.4% from three, making him a valuable floor spacer for the Suns. His next opportunity to return will be Sunday against the Lakers, and the Suns are hopeful to have him back soon.

Nick Richards Sitting Out On Friday

Phoenix Suns center Nick Richards (ankle) will miss Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings, marking his second straight absence after sitting out Wednesday's game versus the Houston Rockets. With Richards sidelined, the Suns will once again turn to Mason Plumlee to handle most of the minutes at center. Richards has been a reliable double-double threat when on the floor, and fantasy managers are hoping for a quick return. In his last game against Memphis, he made the most of his 20 minutes, posting 10 points and 12 rebounds. His next chance to suit up will come Sunday against the Lakers.

Suns Not Looking To Trade Devin Booker This Offseason

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has been with the team since they made him the 13th overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. Despite the rough season with three max-contract players, Booker seems to be cemented in the team's plans moving forward. Even in a down year, the 28-year-old is averaging 25.9 points, 6.8 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.7 threes per game. Owner Matt Ishbia made it clear that Booker is not on the trade block, even though the Suns are expected to make a major shakeup this offseason. Co-stars Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal have already had their names thrown into the rumor mill, and it seems like their moves away from Phoenix are all but inevitable. Ishbia is not a fan of rebuilds, so there could be a brand new supporting cast around Booker with other veterans if he gets his wish.

Monté Morris • PG • Suns

Monte Morris Unavailable Again On Wednesday

The Phoenix Suns announced veteran guard Monte 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.

Nick Richards Out On Wednesday

According to Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix, Phoenix Suns center Nick 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.

Grayson Allen Ruled Out Versus Houston

According to Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV, Phoenix Suns guard Grayson 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.

Bradley Beal • SG • Suns

Bradley Beal Ready To Go For Wednesday

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.
