Markieff Morris (right shoulder strain) is out in addition to Brandon Knight (groin strain) and Jon Leuer (back spasms) for #SunsVsHawks.

O Horny! My Honry! our fearful trip is done;
This team has weather'd every rack, the prize, we never won;
The end is near, the bells I hear, the Suns fans all exulting,
With weary eyes and heavy hearts, the future grim and daunting:

But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of Orange,
Where on the deck my Horny lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

O Horny! My Horny! Goodbye from P - H - X;
Chin up—although no banners won —for you the bugle trills;
For you we count our lotto balls—from you we hoped for thrills;
For your head now, all Suns fans call, our eager faces turning;

Here Horny! dear Horny!
Our arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead.

My Horny does not answer, his rotations dead and still;
My Horny does not excite the fans, the team has no pulse nor ever will;
Our coach is anchor'd safe and sound, his voyage closed and done;
A hopeful bliss, of championships, comes in with the next one.

Exult, Suns fans and ring the bells!
With somber mournful tread,
Walk the deck our Horny lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

Look what you're doing to me Suns! The only shred of fandom left to me is to write poems for the RealGM boards.

Paul Millsap (personal) will not play against the Suns on Saturday.
Advice: He's attending his grandfather's funeral and is expected to be back for Monday. With Millsap out, the Hawks will likely be using Al Horford at power forward more to open up some minutes for Tiago Splitter. Mike Scott and Mike Muscala will also get some run.
