The Suns wrap up their five game home stand against the Hawks on Saturday.

Hawks are 4-5 losing their last two games at Brooklyn and Utah at home.

Suns are 4-3 winning their last three games against Cleveland, New Orleans and Houston.

The game will be televised on Bally Sports Arizona.

Start time is listed at 7 p.m. Arizona time.

No injuriy reports submitted as yet. I'm hoping the Suns get Cam Payne back for the Hawks game.

Trae Young says Hawks need to figure out rotations.

Comments from Cam Payne. I like his optimistic tone.

Someone gave me tickets. So I will be going to this one. It will probably be the one that the players boycott.

Cam Payne remains QUESTIONABLE.

Here is the Hawks injury report.


Bogdan Bogdanovic (right ankle soreness) is PROBABLE.
John Collins (left foot strain) is QUESTIONABLE.
Onyeka Okongwu is OUT.

We've been very unimpressive so far against a pretty easy schedule yet somehow we're currently in 4th place in the West? Granted we'd be in 9th place in the East but still, we're looking at some bad starts for a lot of NBA teams.

Sometimes it's all about staying close until everything starts to click.

This home stand couldn't have come at a better time with the Suns running on half speed. Hope they get by the Hawks tonight who have had troubles of their own.

Ayton out leg still bothering him.
Maybe it's the leg but I wouldn't be shocked to learn he started feeling a lot more injured when he heard about the Jalen Rose comment.

I hope Cam Payne is able to go tonight but this is not going to help the Suns upfront.

If John Collins plays the Suns will have their hands full. Clint Capela alone will be a problem. And there is Gallinari.

Jalen needs to come out and make a statement. Is that something he heard Sarver say 1st or 2nd have? Was that him just putting words in Sarvers mouth. You can’t just drop that

I’m trying not to look too much into the DA DNP tonight, but I wouldn’t be surprised if I had to do with last night’s report. I also wouldn’t be shocked if Ayton is seriously considering a trade request

If there’s fire to THAT smoke I could see it being the proverbial nail in the coffin for sarver. The reason? It’s bad to have rumors of using the n-word generally. But if reputable folks said he called Ayton that o think we see the players on the team actually take a stand. And I don’t think that’s something the league wants to see. Particularly not with Paul at the head of it.

Jalen Rose better have reached out Ayton about that. He should have done that before saying it on air, really. That would force Sarver out and make this whole situation less ambiguous if he's heard that from a credible source.

Making it public was irresponsible.

Monty says Deandre Ayton being out is about being cautious.
