Ahead of their NBA playoff round one rematch against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Phoenix Suns may be without star forward Kevin Durant and rookie wing Ryan Dunn.
The Suns listed All-Star Kevin Durant as available to play in Wednesday's home game against the Timberwolves despite a left thumb injury.
Phoenix Suns rookie, Ryan Dunn, selected 29th overall in the NBA Draft, has rapidly adjusted to the league's style and demands, strongly exceeding initial expectations.
Kevin Durant is questionable to suit up for the Suns after landing on the injury report with a left thumb injury.
Durant (thumb) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports. Durant seemingly picked up the left thumb injury in Monday's win over the Clippers,
The Timberwolves will tip-off against the Suns at 8 p.m. CT Wednesday night in Phoenix, but both teams could be without a rotational player. Rob Dillingham is questionable with an illness, while Kevin Durant is also questionable with a left thumb injury.
For those still holding onto optimism regarding the Phoenix Suns' chances at becoming a contender this season, they continue to test your faith.
The good news is that Dillingham is available. Without Donte DiVincenzo (toe) in recent weeks, Dillingham has been a key piece of the rotation, playing over 10 minutes in five of his last six games. Dillingham is averaging 5.0 points, 1.8 assists and 1.0 rebounds per game this season, and he's scored in double digits in three of his last six games.
Didn’t matter. Minnesota is living rent-free in the Phoenix Suns heads again. The T-Wolves know they're younger, more athletic, more physical, and are letting the Suns know it in their words and actions.
Anthony Edwards scored 33 points, Julius Randle added 28 and the Minnesota Timberwolves won their fourth straight game by beating the Phoenix Suns 121-113 on Wednesday night.
