The Phoenix Suns (38-28) will likely have almost their full rotation back on the second night of a back-to-back in Charlotte against the Hornets today.

Eric Gordon has been upgraded to probable with a left knee contusion that caused him to miss the last two games.

Only Josh Okogie (lower abdominal strain) and Damion Lee (right meniscus surgery) remain out for Phoenix.

Devin Booker is not on the injury report after landing on the foot of Xavier Tillman during last night’s 127-112 loss to the Celtics.

Gordon is averaging 12.0 points with a 44.6% field-goal percentage and 38% shooting from 3 in 29.5 minutes per game. However, the veteran guard has only shot 4-for-18 (22.2%) from deep over his last four games played. Gordon will look to break out of this slump tonight.

The Suns have a golden opportunity to bounce back from last night’s loss tonight, as the Hornets (17-49) will be without five players.

LaMelo Ball (right ankle tendinopathy), Mark Williams (low back injury recovery), Seth Curry (right ankle sprain), Cody Martin (left ankle sprain) and Bryce McGowens (right knee sprain) are all out for Charlotte.

Tonight’s game tips off shortly after 4 p.m. MST.

Celtics’ offensive explosion powers 127-112 victory over Suns
