Abdel Nader Probable For Game 5

Phoenix Suns guard Abdel Nader (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's Game 5 matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was able to suit up for Game 4, but played only five minutes during that contest. Nader finished with two rebounds, but this was his first NBA action since late March. Hopefully, Nader will […]

The only game tonight is Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals between the Clippers and Suns. The Clippers are trying to fend off elimination in Phoenix without Kawhi Leonard, who is still being evaluated (allegedly) on a game-by-game basis. He'll join Serge Ibaka in street clothes.

Abdel Nader Cleared For Action

Phoenix Suns guard Abdel Nader (knee) has been cleared to play and is expected to be available for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals.

Cameron Payne Could Miss Saturday’s Contest

Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (ankle) could miss the Game 4 matchup against the Clippers. The 26-year-old injured his left ankle during Thursday's loss to Los Angeles and was relegated to just four minutes as a result. Chris Paul (illness) returned for Game 3 after being sidelined due to COVID-19, so Payne probably wouldn't have […]
