Suns point guard Isaiah Canaan is used to spending time with the athletic training staff, but his most recent injury was far less gruesome. Canaan missed games Monday and Wednesday with an injured thumb, which he says is just jammed and nothing more serious.
"Yeah, I’m good," said Canaan, whose thumb was lightly taped on Thursday. "I’ve been all right – just letting it rest a little bit, but I’m ready to go."
Canaan and coach Igor Kokoskov both expect that the point guard will be ready to play in Friday's preseason game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
