標籤: November

The Phoenix Suns have won two games on a surge in the buildup to their trip to the Milwaukee Bucks and are 37-27 for the season, still tracking the top half of the Western Conference. Meanwhile, the Bucks have lost five of their last six games, but they will get an unexpected boost in this match.

Taurean Prince, who last played for Milwaukee in November, is listed as questionable on the official injury report, an upgrade to ‘out’ status following his surgery. Prince played only eight games early in the season with what was initially described as a neck strain, later diagnosed as a herniated disc, an injury that ultimately required surgery on November 13.

Regardless, he has a chance to play against Phoenix, which can’t be said about Kevin Porter Jr., who is the only player the Bucks have listed out for this game. Meanwhile, the Suns still have Dillon Brooks out, while Jordan Goodwin is listed as questionable due to a left calf strain.

Taurean Prince’s injury status vs. Suns

The veteran forward is listed as questionable after neck surgery, putting him in line for a possible return after missing nearly four months and 55 consecutive games. Prince has been working out on the court during practice and shootarounds in recent weeks, but there was little indication that a return to play is imminent.

If he dresses on Tuesday night, it will be his first NBA appearance since Milwaukee’s Nov. 4 loss to the Toronto Raptors. Last season, he missed 43.9% of his three-point attempts on 4.2 attempts per game, which ranked third best in the NBA among qualified shooters.

The Bucks enter the matchup with a 27-36 record and come into this game coming off a lopsided 130-91 loss to the Orlando Magic. Phoenix enter the competition in much better form.

The Suns have won four of their last five games and their outlook is much better than in recent weeks in terms of injuries. They will be looking to continue the recent momentum for another outright win.
