Hit in the ankle in his team's defeat against Houston on Saturday evening, the first examinations carried out by the all-star guard did not bring positive results. This season, the player drafted in 13th position by the Suns in 2015, is averaging 27.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 6.8 rebounds. With a failure at the playmaker position, it was often he who stuck to this task.
After a mixed start to the season due to the numerous injuries which decimated the Phoenix squad, the 2021 finalists continue to fall in the rankings. With their two defeats in a row against Houston (118-109) then against Oklahoma (118-11), they currently rank 7th in the Western Conference, closely followed by Dallas, Stephen Curry's Warriors and LeBron's Lakers James.
