So we don't have a game until Thursday, and neither Knight or Len will be available? :(

I know this feels like a doomsday but we're only 3 games behind OKC for the 8th seed. :lol:

I will be in attendance for this one. Going to be pretty bummed if Len and Knight don't play.

Any beat writers have updates on Knight?

Last I heard, he was on crutches but that was around Sat/Sunday

Scared if Len doesn't play AD will have a field day. I don't mind though because I have AD in fantasy. :D

He was walking at the game on Friday. I think he's playing.

I was walking 1 month after torn ligaments on the ankle. Now, 3 months after the injury, I am still not able to do any sports.

Knight didn't tore his ligament, and he is an atlete and has much better doctors, but keep in mind there is a difference between walking and actually making some effort with all muscles in your ankle/leg

Knight and Len didn't practice today. They ran on the anti-gravity treadmill. Availability for Thursday's #SunsVsPelicans is up in the air.

I think Knight looks more like,"here it comes biotch!" But I can see the other two.

Paul Coro:
Brandon Knight & Alex Len (ankle sprains) didn't practice again. Hornacek: "It doesn't look like they'll play" Thursday in #SunsVsPelicans.

Hornacek said Brandon Knight and Alex Len (ankle sprains) will not play in #SunsVsPelicans tonight. Marcus Morris and Brandan Wright start.

We are going to fight a lot to grab boards...this team have bigs ( Asik, Ajinca, Anthonny Davis) that are better rebounders than anyone on our roster. P.J. Tucker will have his hands full with Tyreke, sowe need a big time rebounding game by Markieff.

Go Suns!

Huge game for us tonight if we still have any playoff aspirations at all.

We've had a ton of time off. I hope we come out with a lot of energy.

This is as 'must win' as it gets. I have a feeling we'll take it. A lot of time off to re-focus.
