Phoenix Suns star forward Kevin Durant is out for Tuesday’s game against the visiting Golden State Warriors due to a sprained left ankle.
Durant, 35, also sat out the Suns’ 114-106 home loss to the Sacramento Kings on Friday.
The Suns are expected to welcome Bradley Beal to the lineup Tuesday for just the fourth time this season. Beal has been bothered by a back issue and All-Star guard Devin Booker has also been in and out of the lineup, missing eight games.
A 13-time All-Star and four-time scoring champion, Durant is averaging 31.0 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.7 assists in 19 games this season.
The Suns also listed guard Grayson Allen (groin), forward Nassir Little (concussion protocol) and guard Damion Lee (right meniscus surgery) as out for Tuesday’s game.
Tuesday is the front of a back-to-back for the Suns, who host the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday.
