Devin Booker Delivers in Tough Game 1 Loss

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker finished with 23 points, six rebounds, and two assists in 33 minutes during Sunday's Western Conference first-round loss to Oklahoma City. He led the team in scoring and shot efficiently compared to his teammates, but the offense struggled to generate consistent support in a lopsided defeat. Booker remains the focal point with elite usage, keeping his DFS floor stable despite the blowout risk. Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks continue to handle secondary scoring roles, though both need improved efficiency to ease the pressure on Booker.

Jordan Goodwin Ruled Out for Rest of Game 1

Phoenix Suns guard Jordan Goodwin (calf) won't return to Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Goodsin started the matchup but logged only five minutes before leaving the action due to left calf soreness. Royce O'Neale started the second half in Goodwin's place. Ryan Dunn will also help to cover for Goodwin's absence. Grayson Allen (hamstring) is an option to fill in as well, though he appears set to be a DNP-CD for a second consecutive contest despite shaking off a questionable before tip-off.

Grayson Allen is Available for Game 1 on Sunday

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hamstring) is available to play ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Allen is back in the mix following a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury. It's unclear if Allen will have his minutes monitored or if he'll be a full-go for this one. Regardless, his presence on the court should mean reduced roles for Jordan Goodwin, Collin Gillespie, and Haywood Highsmith. Allen is a hit-and-miss fantasy option, so he won't be the most trustworthy DFS option for Sunday's slate. His return to the court will make Goodwin a less attractive option as well.

Mark Williams is Ruled Out for Game 1 on Sunday

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) has been downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Williams missed Friday's Play-In victory over the Golden State Warriors due to a lingering foot issue. Now, Williams is set to miss the beginning of this series. Oso Ighodaro figures to see an increased role in the rotation with Williams unable to go. He finished with 10 points and six rebounds across 26 minutes of action on Friday. He'll likely play a similar role on Sunday, which could make him an interesting low-cost DFS option. Khaman Maluach could see more minutes off the bench, but it won't be enough to warrant looking at him as a DFS option.

Grayson Allen is Questionable for Sunday's Game

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Allen has been dealing with a lingering hamstring issue, but was available for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Despite being available, Allen didn't suit up for Friday's Play-In victory. Jordan Goodwin, Collin Gillespie, and Haywood Highsmith stand to gain the most value if Allen remains on the sideline for Sunday's contest. Goodwin is by far the best streaming choice between the three players, but he could lose value if Allen does end up playing.

Mark Williams is Questionable for Game 1 on Sunday

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Williams was able to play 22 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers. The big man was unable to suit up for Friday's win over the Golden State Warriors due to a lingering foot issue. Oso Ighodaro finished with 10 points and six rebounds across 26 minutes of action on Friday. He figures to play a similar role once again if Williams misses a second straight game. Khaman Maluach could see an expanded role as well, but Ighodaro is the better streaming option if Williams gets downgraded.

Jordan Goodwin Fills Stat Sheet in Play-In Win

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Jordan Goodwin recorded 19 points (7-for-11 on field goals, 4-for-7 from three, and 1-for-1 on free throws), nine rebounds, two assists, and six steals in 34 minutes during Friday's win over Golden State, helping Phoenix secure the West's eighth seed. Goodwin averaged 12.6 points, 3.0 three-pointers, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.0 steals over his last five games, showing multi-category upside. His defensive production and rebounding give him DFS value if minutes hold, though his role could shift if Grayson Allen (hamstring) returns. Devin Booker and Jalen Green continue to lead usage, limiting Goodwin's scoring ceiling.

Jalen Green Drops 36 Points to Clinch Playoff Spot

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Jalen Green delivered 36 points (14-for-20 on field goals, 8-for-14 from three), six rebounds, four assists, three blocks, and two steals in 40 minutes during Friday's win over Golden State, sending Phoenix into the playoffs as the West's eighth seed. Green has now scored at least 35 points in back-to-back games and is averaging 22.2 points over his last five outings. His scoring-heavy profile boosts his DFS ceiling, but a first-round matchup against Oklahoma City introduces efficiency risk. Devin Booker should continue sharing primary usage, while Dillon Brooks provides secondary wing support.

Grayson Allen Will Play Against Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) will be in action on Friday against the Golden State Warriors. The team has listed Allen as available after initially tagging him as questionable. Allen has been dealing with a hamstring injury and sat out two of the last three regular-season games. The 30-year-old will add some offensive oomph to the Suns. Allen has played well against the Warriors this season, posting averages of 18.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 2.0 steals across two games. He has netted 40.9 percent of his triples in this matchup. With Allen back in the fold, Jordan Goodwin and Royce O'Neale may see their workload decrease.

Mark Williams Won't Play Friday Night

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's decisive Play-In Tournament matchup against the Golden State Warriors. After missing two of the last three regular-season games, Williams logged 22 minutes in Tuesday's play-in loss to Portland, but his foot flared up during the contest. Phoenix initially listed Williams as questionable for Friday before ruling him out. Oso Ighodaro is expected to slide into the first unit to replace Williams. Khaman Maluach and Rasheer Fleming will also move up on the depth chart. Ighodaro started 24 games during the regular season, averaging 8.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 3.1 assists.

Mark Williams Could Sit in Play-In Clash

Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) is questionable for Friday's West eighth-seed Play-In Tournament game against Golden State after dealing with left-foot soreness and logging 22 minutes in Tuesday's loss to Portland. If he sits, Oso Ighodaro is expected to start. His fantasy appeal remains limited despite three points, one rebound, six assists, and one steal in 23 minutes last game, while averaging 6.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists across 22 minutes this season. Ighodaro is a low-cost DFS punt who can return value with rebounds and out-of-position assists if he sees enough minutes, while Devin Booker and Jalen Green should continue to carry the offensive load.

Grayson Allen Iffy for Friday's Play-In Game

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) is questionable for Friday's Play-In Tournament matchup against Golden State and could miss a third straight game if he cannot sprint during pregame testing. His absence would keep Phoenix leaning on secondary pieces, with Royce O'Neale producing seven points, eight rebounds, three assists, and four steals in 24 minutes last game, while Collin Gillespie logged five points with one triple across 20 minutes. O'Neale is the safer streaming option if you need rebounds and defensive stats, while Gillespie is more of a deeper-league play for assists. Devin Booker and Jalen Green should continue handling heavy usage.

Jalen Green Scores Team-High 35 Points During Play-In Loss

Phoenix Suns guard Jalen Green bagged 35 points in 39 minutes during Tuesday's 114-110 Play-In Tournament loss against the Portland Trail Blazers. However, he went quiet late in the game as Phoenix blew a 100-89 lead inside the final six minutes of play. Green had a couple of costly turnovers down the stretch and finished with five turnovers overall. His line also included five rebounds, two assists, and one block. While he managed only two makes on seven attempts from beyond the arc, Green's scoring was efficient overall at 14-for-29 from the field. Tuesday's loss is a setback for the Suns, but they can still make the postseason if they beat the winner of Wednesday's Clippers-Warriors matchup. Devin Booker must be sharper on Friday night after settling for 22 points on a 7-for-17 effort against Portland.

Grayson Allen Won't Play Tuesday Night

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) will miss Tuesday's play-in game against the Portland Trail Blazers. After managing a knee injury throughout the campaign, Allen sustained a hamstring injury during the final week of regular-season action. He won't be in the Suns' lineup for the third time in four games. Royce O'Neale, Jordan Goodwin, and Collin Gillespie could all get extra work with Allen out of commission.

Royce O'Neale and Mark Williams Available on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (knee) and center Mark Williams (foot) are available to suit up for Tuesday's Play-In Tournament game against the Portland Trail Blazers. O'Neale sat out Sunday's regular-season finale due to a knee issue, while Williams was given the night off for rest. Both players have been cleared and are expected to see increased usage in tonight's matchup.

Dillon Brooks Available for Tuesday's Play-In Game Against Portland

Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks (hand) is available for Tuesday's Play-In Game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Brooks sat out of the Suns' final regular-season contest on Sunday versus Oklahoma City due to injury management. However, he is good to go for tonight's matchup in Phoenix. Since returning from a fractured left hand that required surgery, the 30-year-old Canadian saw action in six regular-season games, averaging 14.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists across 28.5 minutes.

Jordan Goodwin Returns From Two-Game Absence

Phoenix Suns guard Jordan Goodwin (ankle) has been cleared for the Play-In Tournament and will suit up on Tuesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. His regular-season campaign ended prematurely because Goodwin missed the last two games with an ankle injury. Goodwin has been a key reserve for the Suns, averaging career-high numbers in scoring (8.7), rebounding (4.9), and steals (1.5). He's been a starter in each of his last three appearances and could have added importance again on Tuesday night, as Grayson Allen (hamstring) is questionable to play.

Grayson Allen Questionable Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's play-in clash against the Portland Trail Blazers. He injured his left hamstring on Friday against the Lakers and sat out Sunday's regular-season finale versus Oklahoma City. Allen's absence would leave the Suns without their fourth-highest scorer on Tuesday. The 30-year-old has averaged a career-high 16.5 points per game this season. Royce O'Neale (knee) and Jordan Goodwin (ankle) will have more prominent roles if Allen isn't cleared to play. Both are available for Tuesday's game after missing time during the final week of the regular season.

Jalen Green Cleared for Action Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Jalen Green (knee) will play on Tuesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. He missed the last two regular-season games with a sore right knee. Fortunately for the Suns, Green is able to participate in the Play-In Tournament. The former second-overall pick made his postseason debut last year and clearly struggled with the occasion as Houston was dumped out in the first round by a lower-seeded Golden State. Phoenix needs Green to stay sharp on Tuesday night. He had a decent finish to the regular season, scoring 20-plus points in seven of his last 10 outings.

Devin Booker Available Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (ankle) will play in Tuesday's play-in matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. He is managing an ankle injury and missed the final two regular-season games. However, the Suns haven't included Booker on the injury report before Tuesday's action. Booker had a huge finish to the regular season and is expected to lead the Suns through the Play-In Tournament and into the playoffs. He has scored at least 30 points in five of his last six appearances, nailing 41.0 percent of his three-point attempts.
