Suns Reveal Starters vs 76ers
PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns hope to again find the win column when the Philadelphia 76ers come to town.
Head coach Frank Vogel will utilize the following starting lineup:
Devin Booker
Bradley Beal
Grayson Allen
Kevin Durant
Jusuf Nurkic
The Suns previously ruled out Josh Okogie (ab strain) and Damion Lee (meniscus surgery). Bol Bol was initially probable with a right ankle sprain but is good to go tonight.
Robert Covington (left knee), Joel Embiid (meniscus), Kai Jones (hamstring), De'Anthony Melton (back) and Terquavion Smith (G League) were ruled out ahead of time for Philadelphia.
The Suns are an even 3-3 in their last six ahead of tonight and are coming off a 140-129 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday.
With two full days of rest and returning back home, Phoenix hopes they can keep pace in a tight race within the Western Conference postseason picture. Bradley Beal (28), Grayson Allen (25) and Devin Booker (23) helped pace the Suns in scoring on Sunday.
The Sixers are fresh off a 98-91 slugfest win over the Miami Heat where Tyrese Maxey notched his third straight 30-point performance for Philadelphia. With Embiid out, Maxey's 26.1 ppg leads the 76ers.
Phoenix lost their previous encounter with Philadelphia in 112-100 fashion earlier in November.
Opening tip is slated for 7:00 PM Arizona time.
