Royce O’Neale Questionable for Suns’ Game Against Grizzlies on December 31st with Ankle Injury

Royce O’Neale of the Phoenix Suns is dealing with an ankle injury. He is currently listed as questionable for the upcoming game against the Memphis Grizzlies on December 31st. This injury was first reported on December 28th, and it remains uncertain if he will be able to play.

What It Means

If Royce O’Neale cannot play, it could impact the Suns. He has been a solid contributor this season, averaging 10.8 points per game and shooting over 44% from three-point range. His ability to hit multiple three-pointers in games has been valuable.

The Suns might need to rely more on Kevin Durant or other players like Ryan Dunn and Oso Ighodaro at power forward if O’Neale is out. Durant leads the team in scoring, so his role may expand even further. The depth chart shows options, but losing a player like O’Neale could still affect team dynamics.
