Bismack Biyombo has been medically cleared after he collapsed during the team's clash with Portland on Wednesday. Biyombo suddenly collapsed during a timeout in the second quarter while standing on the sideline. He appeared to have hurt his head when he fell backward into the benches, but the Congolese big man avoided any serious injury and was able to walk to the locker room. Biyombo will undergo further evaluations on Thursday. The 31-year-old has been with OKC for less than a month, averaging 5.8 minutes in four appearances.

Bismack Biyombo (knee) is expected to play Wednesday against the Washington Wizards. Biyombo is dealing with some knee soreness on the second night of a back-to-back but will resume his normal reserve role behind teammate
Deandre Ayton. If Biyombo is hobbled by the injury at all,
Jock Landale would pick up some extra minutes.

Bismack Biyombo is returning to the Suns for the upcoming 2022-23 year, per Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports. After the departure of
JaVale McGee in free agency, Phoenix was able to retain Biyombo's services after he appeared in 36 games for the team last season. While he was used sparingly as a reserve, the 29-year-old averaged 12 points and 9.7 rebounds across his three starts. Biyombo's role will largely be determined by whether Phoenix is able to retain center
Deandre Ayton, a restricted free agent; a departure from the youngster could pave the way for Biyombo to garner season-long appeal early in the season, with the newly acquired
Jock Landale also in competition for frontcourt minutes.
