Jordan Goodwin

PHX Guard #23

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Jordan Goodwin tallied 19 points (7-of-11 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, six steals and four three-pointers in the win over the Warriors on Friday.

Goodwin was impressive in Friday’s victory on both ends of the floor. On offense, he took advantage of his looks from beyond the arc and made over half of his seven attempts to nearly reach the 20-point mark. He also secured four offensive boards and tallied a couple of assists. But what really stood out on this night was his work on defense, where he changed the game with his outstanding disruptiveness. Goodwin nearly accounted for half of Phoenix’s 14 steals before finishing the game just one rebound shy of a double-double. Goodwin did it all for the Suns on Friday and will have a chance to put up similar production on Sunday against the Thunder.
Devin Booker

PHX Guard #1

Devin Booker added 20 points (5-of-12 FGs, 10-of-10 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal in Friday’s win over the Warriors.

Booker logged a fairly balanced performance as Phoenix’s lead guard. He shot inefficiently from beyond the arc but repeatedly worked his way to the line to help reach the 20-point mark. Meanwhile, he took on the role of lead playmaker, which nearly led him to a points-assists double-double. The veteran combo guard didn’t deliver any major counting stats. However, he took a very calculated approach, which allowed him to finish with a team-high plus-25 on the evening. He’ll have a chance to log another strong outing on Sunday in Game 1 against the Thunder.
Jalen Green

PHX Guard #4

Jalen Green tallied 36 points (14-of-20 FGs), six rebounds, four assists, two steals, three blocks and eight three-pointers in the win over the Warriors on Friday.

Green was exceptional on Friday to help the Suns clinch a spot in the playoffs. The first-year Sun accounted for nearly half of his team’s 18 triples, and missed only six shots en route to totaling a game-high 36 points. He also contributed as a facilitator and amassed five stocks on the defensive end of the floor. Phoenix will take the floor in less than 48 hours to face the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday, where Green will look to stay hot.
Oso Ighodaro

PHX Forward #11

Devin Booker, Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Oso Ighodaro and Jordan Goodwin will start on Friday against the Warriors.

With Mark Williams out due to a foot injury, Ighodaro will get the start. The second-year big man averaged 6.5 points and 5.1 rebounds per game during the regular season and could play an important role in helping the Suns extend their season and earn a playoff matchup against the Thunder.
Grayson Allen

PHX Guard #8

Grayson Allen (hamstring) is available to play against the Warriors on Friday.

Allen will return to the lineup after missing the Play-In Tournament loss to the Trail Blazers. His return will provide Phoenix with one of its best three-point shooters with the season on the line. Allen averaged 16.5 points per game during the regular season.
Mark Williams

PHX Center #15

Mark Williams (foot) will not play against the Warriors on Friday.

The Suns will be without their starting center on Friday, with their season on the line. Williams played 22 minutes in the Play-In Tournament loss to the Trail Blazers. In his absence, Oso Ighodaro will likely fill in as Phoenix’s starting center.
Mark Williams

PHX Center #15

Mark Williams (foot) is questionable for Friday’s game against the Warriors.

Williams, who sat out the Suns’ last regular-season game, logged 22 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers. Oso Ighodaro was his replacement in the starting lineup on most nights during the regular season, and that should remain the case on Friday if Williams can’t play.
Grayson Allen

PHX Guard #8

According to Suns head coach Jordan Ott, Grayson Allen (hamstring) is progressing in his recovery.

Allen injured his hamstring during the Suns’ penultimate game of the regular season, an April 10 loss to the Lakers. According to Ott, the veteran guard’s availability for Friday’s Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors will depend on whether he can sprint. Royce O’Neale and Collin Gillespie take on added importance in their respective roles with Allen unavailable.
Dillon Brooks

PHX Guard-Forward #3

Dillon Brooks logged 20 points (6-of-10 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, four steals and two three-pointers in Tuesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers.

Brooks had a positive impact in his 37 minutes on Tuesday before fouling out late in the fourth quarter. While on the floor, he was a pest defensively, as shown in his four steals, but also repeatedly made momentum-building shots while the Suns led. Despite taking only 10 shots on the evening, the veteran forward finished as one of three Suns players to tally at least 20 points. Phoenix will hope Brooks can be productive again on Friday against the winner of Wednesday’s Warriors-Clippers matchup.
Jalen Green

PHX Guard #4

Jalen Green amassed 35 points (14-of-29 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two three-pointers in the loss to the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.

Green was Phoenix’s best scorer on a night that he logged a team-high 39 minutes. He was cold from the three-point line but made up for his inefficiency from beyond the arc by dazzling in the paint and finding production in the midrange. Green, however, did commit five turnovers in the process. Still, his positives outweighed the negatives on this night, and he’ll have another opportunity to help Phoenix get into the playoffs on Friday when it faces the winner of Wednesday’s Clippers-Warriors game.
