Phoenix Suns star guard Bradley Beal will return tonight against the Houston Rockets after a five-game absence due to a right hamstring injury.
Beal was originally listed as probable with the injury. He had a good day playing pick-up yesterday in practice, Suns’ coach Frank Vogel said, which led to the upgrade in his status. Beal will be starting and on a “minutes range.”
Eric Gordon (left groin strain) will miss his third straight game for the suns (35-24). Nassir Little (left knee inflammation) will miss his second straight game. Damion Lee remains out, as he has all season, after he underwent right meniscus surgery this offseason.
