#Suns injury report for tomorrow’s game vs. #Raptors
Devin Booker (right ankle sprain) OUT
Josh Okogie (lower abdominal strain) OUT
Nassir Little (left knee inflammation) OUT
Damion Lee (right meniscus surgery) OUT— Brendan Mau (@brendan_mau) March 7, 2024
Coach Frank Vogel said that it is possible for Booker to return Saturday when the Suns (36-26) host the Celtics, but reports seem to suggest this is the best-case scenario. Tomorrow will be Booker’s third consecutive missed game after suffering the injury in Saturday’s loss to the Rockets. Phoenix is now 5-7 without the All-Star guard this season.
As for Okogie, this will be his third straight game missed. Little will be out for the fifth straight game.
Here is the latest on these two per AZ Central’s Duane Rankin:
From Tuesday:
Frank Vogel update on Josh Okogie, Nassir Little.
Okogie ruled lower abdominal strain after further diagnosis.
"He's about where he was the other day."
Little underwent PRP injection for left knee
inflammation that'll sideline him "for a week or so." #Suns— Duane Rankin (@DuaneRankin) March 6, 2024
Lee has missed the entire season after undergoing right meniscus surgery in the offseason.

The Raptors (23-39) enter tomorrow night’s contest after losing by 41 to the Pelicans yesterday. They will be banged up against the Suns.
