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

Royce O’Neale is dealing with a left ankle sprain and is listed as questionable for the Phoenix Suns’ upcoming game against the Memphis Grizzlies on December 31st. The injury has raised concerns about his availability, and it remains uncertain if he will take the court.

What It Means

The potential absence of Royce O’Neale could impact the Phoenix Suns lineup. This season, he averages 10.8 points per game, with a shooting percentage of 45.3%. His three-point shooting stands at an impressive 44.8%, making him a valuable asset in spacing the floor.

If O’Neale cannot play, the team might rely more on Kevin Durant, who leads in minutes and scoring among power forwards on the team. Other players like Ryan Dunn and Oso Ighodaro may also see increased playing time to fill in gaps left by O’Neale’s potential absence.
