Surprise! Suns Drop Bombshell Starting Lineup Against Spurs
PHOENIX — The Phoenix Suns are winners of their last four of five heading into tonight's battle against the San Antonio Spurs.
With a virtually clean bill of health, here is the starting lineup Suns coach Frank Vogel opted for:
David Booker
Bradley Beal
Allen Grayson
Kevin Durant
Jusuf Nurkic
When Phoenix has been healthy, this has been the Suns' primary starting lineup and can often be effective as well thanks to their star power. Role players like Eric Gordon, Royce O'Neale and Bol Bol have also proven useful off the bench in the desert.
The Suns hope to replicate the success of Saturday's win over San Antonio, where they paced the action from start to finish. The Spurs will be without Victor Wembanyama due to an ankle injury tonight, and now expectations of a Phoenix victory only increase.
For San Antonio, Charles Bassey is still out with his torn ACL. Four Spurs (Jamaree Bouyea, Sidy Cissoko, David Duke Jr. and RaiQuan Gray) are out due to G League duties.
Damion Lee was the only Suns player listed as out as he recovers from meniscus surgery earlier in the season.
Suns-Spurs will tip shortly after 5:00 pm Arizona time. The Suns currently sit at No. 6 in the West with just over ten games remaining.
