Bradley Beal's Suns Return Date Revealed

PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns have long awaited the return of Bradley Beal, who has missed nearly a month since his last game on Nov. 12 due to lower back issues that's seen him play only three games thus far.

Now, Beal is expected back the next time the team touches the floor.

The Arizona Republic's Duane Rankin is reporting barring any setbacks, Beal will be back with the team when they host the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday.

"Barring any setbacks, Bradley Beal (back) on course to play Tuesday vs. Golden State, sources have told The Republic. Beal has played in just three games with Phoenix Suns. Last played Nov. 12 vs. OKC. Full participant Sunday practice. Averaging 17.3 points this season." - Rankin

Phoenix's Big 3 of Beal, Kevin Durant and Devin Booker have yet to hit the court together this season. Durant has played in 19 games while Booker's featured in 13 after battling some of his own injury issues.

“You guys know that one piece can always change a team drastically. That is not an ordinary piece that we are adding either, that is Bradly Beal. Me and KD (Kevin Durant) have played together, sure," Booker said after Friday night's loss to Sacramento.

"But we have not had Brad out there. One person can change everything, the whole landscape and the spacing. Obviously, I can keep saying that I cannot wait until he comes back, but making sure that he is healthy and ready to go before he does.”

Phoenix is 12-10 in the regular season.
