Suns Provide Injury Updates on Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green
The Phoenix Suns have yet to see their full lineup healthy this season. Both starters, guard Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks, have missed multiple games due to injuries.
Injury Details
- Jalen Green suffered a hamstring injury before preseason and has not appeared in any regular-season games.
- Dillon Brooks missed three consecutive games, including Friday's matchup against the Utah Jazz, due to a core muscle strain.
Coach Jordan Ott’s Update
"It's continuing to evaluate them day-by-day. We haven't had a ton of 5-on-5 because of our schedule. Yesterday, the day in between, more just film and walk through. They've been able to partake in all of that."
Brooks and Green both joined the Suns in the trade that involved Kevin Durant and the Houston Rockets.
Green's Progress and Outlook
"You can see him in games, how engaged he is and how much he wants to be out there. It's the same in practice. He's been great the entire time. So he's getting it in here and there and that's really helped him as he's progressed here. We know when he gets into live action that hopefully his involvement overall can be sped up because of the reps he's been able to take even though he isn't playing in the game."
Green was initially ruled out for the start of the season and scheduled for re-evaluation after ten days, but a clear timeline for his debut remains uncertain.
The Suns continue to monitor both players closely as they prepare for full participation.
Author's summary: The Phoenix Suns are cautiously optimistic as Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green recover from injuries, with daily evaluations guiding their eventual return to the court.
