Torrey Craig Stats

Phoenix Suns forward Torrey Craig (groin) will be back from a three-game absence Wednesday against Boston. He suffered a right groin strain at the start of the month but is now ready to play again. The 31-year-old was enjoying a really nice stretch before getting injured and he will hope to continue to produce in Wednesday's matchup. Craig's absence gave Dario Saric a chance to log a couple of starts, but he'll now fall back into obscurity in fantasy hoops. Ish Wainright also picked up his first career start in the last game against Dallas and saw extended minutes during Craig's absence, but he failed to impress and will likely now struggle to get meaningful playing time.

Phoenix Suns power forward Torrey Craig (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's contest against the Mavericks due to a right groin strain, his third consecutive absence due to the ailment. Dario Saric has stepped into the starting five in place of Craig and delivered solid results for his DFS price, while Ish Wainright has seen his role among the bench unit grow. Craig has been integral on the defensive end for Phoenix, who are yielding the fifth-lowest PPG average (108.4) in the league this season. The next opportunity for the veteran to return to action comes Wednesday vs. Boston.

Phoenix Suns forward Torrey Craig (groin) won't play on Sunday versus the Spurs, marking his second straight absence because of a groin strain. The 31-year-old has played well in place of Cameron Johnson (knee) this season, averaging 8.8 points, 5.6 boards, and 1.2 blocks in 13 starts. Dario Saric filled in for him on Friday, although he scrounged together just three points while making only one of his four attempts from deep. Hopefully, Craig will be back sooner than later. That said, while Saric has upside based on his track record, fantasy managers should keep him out of the lineup until he proves he can produce.

Phoenix Suns power forward Torrey Craig (groin) has been deemed unavailable to suit up for Friday's contest against Houston due to a strained right groin. Craig's absence -- his first of the year -- figures to pave the way for Ish Wainright to accrue added minutes, while Mikal Bridges is set to take on a larger defensive and rebounding role. Craig has found an offensive rhythm as of late, scoring in double figures in six of his last nine outings, knocking down an average of 1.4 threes per game in that span. His next chance to return to action comes Sunday vs. the Spurs.
