The Phoenix Suns will be without All-Star Devin Booker for their Tuesday night matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers, marking his sixth consecutive missed game due to a sprained right ankle. Guard Jalen Green is listed as questionable as he continues to manage a right hamstring injury and a right hip contusion sustained in a recent fall. The absence of Booker and the injury doubts surrounding Green pose challenges for the Suns as they head on the road.
Since Booker’s injury, the Suns have recorded a 3-2 record without their star scorer, highlighting the team’s determined but affected performance in his absence. Green, in his rookie season, has played only five games due primarily to persistent hamstring issues, including missing Sunday’s 117-93 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers after logging 15:34 minutes against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Trail Blazers Face Their Own Injury Woes Ahead of Clash
Portland is also contending with several key players sidelined for Tuesday’s game. All-Star forward Deni Avdija, averaging a career-best 25.5 points and 6.7 assists per game, is doubtful with a lower back strain and did not dress for Sunday’s loss to Cleveland. Scoot Henderson remains sidelined all season due to a left hamstring tear, while veteran guard Jrue Holiday is questionable for personal reasons.
Additional injuries include forwards Kris Murray (lumbar strain) and Matisse Thybulle (right knee tendinopathy), both ruled out, along with point guard Damian Lillard, who continues to recover from a torn left Achilles and has not played this season. Despite these challenges, Portland is set to host Phoenix in hopes of improving their standing.
