Noooooooooooooooooooooooo. He is going to be out until then. We will be without Brooks and Williams for multiple weeks. HUGE BLOW to the Suns.

I am not sure it is a huge blow. Well it is against big teams I guess, but we play better when he is off the court - like much better - which is mostly a credit to OSO.

It's actually probably a good thing for this Mark Williams injury to happen now. We need to know how important he is, and how well we can survive without him before deciding on what we are willing to spend on him to resign him - or to let him walk.

His tendancy to be injury prone and the way he is sometimes disappearing as of late is making me second guess how much of a future he has with the team.

He will, but I don't really expect it to go that well.

I think we are going to be playing a lot of small ball.

Hopefully when one door closes, another one opens.

Big opportunities for Fleming and Maluach to step up to the plate. Maybe even Huntley.

Play the best you can Khaman and let the game come to you. Defense and rebounding are the most important.

Haywood Highsmith's return couldn't come at a better time.

oso pairs so well with gillespie and now they're both starting - in what has to be our millionth different lineup

More on Mark Williams, although it may have already been reported.

"Scheduled for re-evaluation in 2-to-3 weeks for stress reaction in 3rd metatarsal of his left foot," per Duane Rankin

I do so enjoy watching the rookies play but the Suns will need to dig deep to get wins with all the injuries.

if richards has his way with maluach don't be surprised - richards will have something to prove and this is manman's first go

wow - that makes oso the starter and we'll see plenty of manman - starting unit will be fine over time but losing oso is going to effect our bench big time
This is the scenario I feared if we traded Richard’s.
