Suns Reveal Starting Lineup vs Nuggets

The Phoenix Suns look to bounce back after seeing their seven-game winning streak snapped on Wednesday when they play host to the Denver Nuggets at 8:00 PM Arizona time. 

Suns coach Frank Vogel has opted for the following starting lineup against the defending champs:

Grayson Allen
Eric Gordon
Keita Bates-Diop
Kevin Durant
Jusuf Nurkic 

Phoenix will be without Devin Booker tonight as he recovers from an ankle injury suffered in Toronto. His timetable for return currently is unknown, though there's hope he could return either tomorrow against the Memphis Grizzlies or Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. 

He was initially listed as questionable. 

Fellow guards Damion Lee and Bradley Beal remain out and likely will be for the next few games, though Lee is expected to be out long-term after having meniscus surgery. Beal's return should be approaching, as next week will mark the three-week timetable Phoenix initially set for Beal's absence. 

Tonight will see the return of other players such as Nassir Little, who briefly departed the team to welcome his new baby girl to the world. Grayson Allen is also back after suffering from illness over the last two games. 

The Suns are 11-7 entering tonight's matchup. Tonight's matchup will be found nationally on ESPN but can viewed locally on AZ Family TV channel 3.
