On Wednesday evening, the Phoenix Suns could be without one of their best players when they face off against the Brooklyn Nets (in New York). Three-time NBA All

BROOKLYN – Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal is ruled out of Wednesday’s game against Brooklyn at Barclays Center with a left ankle sprain after playing Monday at Cleveland following a two-game absence with the injury. “There’s soreness,” Suns coach Mike Budenholzer said before Wednesday’s game. “He's unable to go."

The Suns listed guard Bradley Beal as out (left ankle sprain) for Phoenix's game against an injury-hit Brooklyn Nets team on Wednesday.

Another questionable tag leaves his status unclear for Wednesday's Nets matchup.

The Phoenix Suns (21-21) play at the Brooklyn Nets (14-30) on Wednesday, airing in the Valley on Arizona's Family (Ch. 3) at 5:30 p.m. This is the final of the Suns' five-game road trip, and second of their home and away series against the Nets.

The Suns acquired Beal from the Wizards in the summer of 2023 in a deal that sent Chris Paul to the Wizards. The three-time All-Star left Washington second on the franchise’s all-time scoring list with 15,391 points in 11 seasons, just 160 points behind Elvin Hayes.

The trouble with including Beal is that he has a no-trade clause. He can therefore veto any trade the Suns present him with, and despite reports to the contrary, his agent, Mark Bartelstein, told Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic that Beal has not agreed to head to any specific teams in a possible deal.

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal is questionable for the game against the Brooklyn Nets due to an ankle injury. With a 21-21 record, the Suns are concerned about backcourt depth as Beal has been a valuable contributor.
