Suns’ Beal Questionable, Nets’ Cam Thomas Ruled Out

Bradley Beal Questionable

Beal is dealing with a hamstring injury that he suffered in the Suns’ last game. The injury is not considered serious, but the Suns are being cautious with their star player. Beal is averaging 25.4 points per game this season, and his absence would be a big blow to the Suns.

“We’re just taking it day by day with Bradley,” Suns head coach Monty Williams said. “We’re hoping he’ll be able to play on Friday, but we’re not going to rush him back.”

Cam Thomas Ruled Out

Thomas has been ruled out of Friday’s game with a sprained ankle. The injury occurred in the Nets’ last game, and Thomas is expected to miss at least a week. Thomas is averaging 14.3 points per game this season, and his absence will be a blow to the Nets’ depth.

“Cam is a big part of our team, and we’re going to miss him,” Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn said. “But we have a lot of other guys who can step up, and I’m confident we can still win without him.”

Outlook

The Suns and Nets are both expected to be competitive teams this season, and Friday’s game is sure to be a close one. The absence of Beal and Thomas will certainly have an impact on the game, but both teams have enough depth to overcome the losses.
