The availability of Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks is expected be a game-time decision against the Utah Jazz on Monday.
He is officially listed as questionable with right groin soreness after playing 31 minutes against the Denver Nuggets on Saturday and 27 minutes against the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday.
Brooks has had groin injuries twice earlier in his career, once in 2023 and once 2020.
He is second on the team, averaging 19.3 points through three games and is averaging 2.7 steals per game and one of the team’s key defensive stoppers.
In two seasons with Houston, Brooks missed 17 total games in the regular season and averaged more than 30 minutes per game in each of the last three seasons.
The Phoenix Suns debut for Jalen Green will delayed again, as he will miss his fourth straight game to start the season with a right hamstring strain.
His next chance to take the floor for the Suns will be on Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies.
For the Jazz, Isaiah Collier (right hamstring strain) and Georges Niang (left foot stress reaction) were listed as out.
Tip off for Suns-Jazz is set for 6 p.m. and can be heard on 98.7 and the Arizona Sports app.
