The Phoenix Suns enter Monday’s clash with the Los Angeles Lakers on a two-game losing streak, dealing with several injuries.
Ryan Dunn is listed as probable with a right wrist sprain, while Jalen Green (right hamstring) and Isaiah Livers (right hip) are confirmed out, limiting the Suns’ wing depth.
Phoenix (12–9) is coming off losses to the Denver Nuggets (112–130) and Oklahoma City Thunder (119–123).
Devin Booker remains the team’s focal point, averaging 25.7 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 6.9 assists per game while playing 35.9 minutes.
Dillon Brooks contributes 21.5 points and 3.2 rebounds, and Collin Gillespie adds 12.7 points with 5.0 assists per game. Mark Williams is expected to anchor the interior with 12.9 points and 9.2 rebounds per game.
The Lakers, riding a seven-game winning streak and holding a 15–4 record, have yet to release their official injury report, but stars like Luka Doncic (35.1 points, 8.5 rebounds, 9.4 assists) and Austin Reaves (28.5 points, 5.9 rebounds, 6.7 assists) are likely to lead the charge.
Los Angeles has defeated the New Orleans Pelicans (133–121) and Dallas Mavericks (129–119) in their last two contests.
Phoenix’s supporting cast, including Royce O’Neale (11.5 points, 5.3 rebounds) and Grayson Allen (17.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.2 assists), will be critical in mitigating the impact of absent starters and sustaining offensive output.
Monday’s game marks the first meeting of the 2025-26 season between the Suns and Lakers.
