On First Take today, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith voiced his concerns with the Phoenix Suns (now 2-3) because of their star players missing games.
Devin Booker (left ankle sprain) made his return to the court last night after missing the last three games. Bradley Beal has yet to play this season with low back spasms and will be out tomorrow as well. However, Kevin Durant has played every game (and heavy minutes at that).
“The only reason why we thought about Phoenix really, really making some noise this season is because we expected this three-headed monster offensively to be on the court together,” Smith said.
