Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal is listed as questionable with soreness in his right elbow for tomorrow’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Beal missed the previous game, a 114-102 win over the Dallas Mavericks, after injuring his elbow in Friday’s loss to the Lakers. Ryan Dunn started in Beal’s absence, scoring 13 points on efficient shooting in 21 minutes. This season, Beal has averaged 19.5 points with 53.8% shooting and 5.0 assists in the two games he has played.
In other Suns injury updates, Grayson Allen is set to return after missing two games for personal reasons. He is now expected to resume his sixth-man role. Additionally, Josh Okogie remains sidelined with a hamstring strain, while TyTy Washington and Jalen Bridges are unavailable due to their assignment with the G League.
