Suns Struggle with Injuries Ahead of Clash with Undefeated Spurs

As the Phoenix Suns prepare to take on the undefeated San Antonio Spurs on Sunday, they are dealing with a number of key injuries. Both Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks have been ruled out for the game, with Green nursing a hamstring issue and Brooks dealing with a core muscle strain.

The Spurs, on the other hand, are also missing several of their own players, including De'Aaron Fox, Luke Kornet, Kelly Olynyk, Jeremy Sochan, and Lindy Waters. Despite these absences, the Spurs have managed to start the season with a perfect 5-0 record, thanks in large part to the dominant performances of rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama.

Suns coach Jordan Ott is well aware of the challenge his team faces, acknowledging the Spurs' "super talented" roster and Wembanyama's impressive stats. To pull off the win, the Suns will need to focus on limiting their turnovers, which Ott jokingly said they should try to "kick out of bounds" instead of giving the ball away.

The Suns are coming off a Friday night win over the Utah Jazz, which snapped a four-game losing streak. They'll be looking to build on that momentum and overcome their injury woes to take down the undefeated Spurs on Sunday.
