Bradley Beal's Injury Status For Jazz-Suns Game

Bradley Beal has been ruled out for Saturday's game.

On Saturday evening, the Phoenix Suns will play the Utah Jazz at home in Arizona. 

The Suns are coming off a 100-95 loss to LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday evening. 

Bradley Beal has yet to make his season debut, and he remains ruled out for Saturday's game against the Jazz. 

Via Underdog NBA: "Bradley Beal (back) ruled out for Saturday."

Beal is coming off a year where he averaged 23.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 5.4 assists per contest while shooting 50.6% from the field and 36.5% from the three-point range.  

He spent the first 11 seasons of his career with the Washington Wizards but was traded to the Suns over the offseason. 

His career averages are 22.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.1 steals per contest while shooting 46.0% from the field and 37.2% from the three-point range in 695 regular season games (he has also appeared in 45 NBA playoff games). 

The Suns are coming off a season where they were the fourth seed in the Western Conference. 

They beat the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round of the NBA playoffs but lost to the Denver Nuggets in the second round (in six games).

The franchise has been to the playoffs in each of the previous three seasons and made the NBA Finals in 2021.

Meanwhile, the Jazz are coming off a 120-118 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers at home in Salt Lake City on Friday. 

Last season, they were the 12th seed in the Western Conference and missed the playoffs.
