The Phoenix Suns are in a bit of a pickle. After starting the season strong, they've hit a rough patch, losing their last three games. Why? Injuries! Kevin Durant has been out with a left calf strain, and now Bradley Beal has joined him, also dealing with a similar issue. As the Suns face the Orlando Magic, both superstars will be sitting out. Coach Mike Budenholzer isn't too optimistic about Beal's return, saying he's making progress but there's no set timeline.

Beal's injury is a bit of a mystery. He left a game against the Utah Jazz early with left calf tightness, calling it a precaution. But it might be more serious than first thought. And Durant? Still recovering from his own injury.

To make matters worse, 7-foot star Jusuf Nurkic is also out tonight. He's been dealing with an ankle injury and the team doesn't want to risk making it worse by playing him in back-to-back games. Without these three big names, the Suns are feeling the pressure.

Coach Budenholzer has been relying on Mason Plumlee to fill Nurkic's shoes. He's started him in the lineup and praised his performance. But the spotlight is really on Devin Booker. He's been averaging 24 points this season and had a huge 44-point game against the Wolves. The Suns are hoping he can lead them out of this losing streak.
