Suns shooting guard Devin Booker is expected to be listed as “out” with a right hamstring strain ahead of Thursday's Game 6 matchup against the Pelicans.
His status reportedly has a chance to be upgraded before another installment of the No. 1 vs. No. 8 matchup.
The 25-year-old sharpshooter left in the third quarter exactly a week ago and his hamstring is not healed at this time.
The Pro Basketball Docs expect Booker to be limited if he plays, especially on the defensive end.
He can serve as an effective spot-up shooter in Phoenix's offense, but he will also have an elevated risk for reaggravation of the injury.
The Suns surged to a 3-2 lead on Tuesday in a 112-97 victory behind 31 points from Mikal Bridges.
Chris Paul also played an effecient game despite his left hand injury. He finished with 22 points, 6 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 steals.
The Suns are favored by 2 points on the road in Game 6 and the over/under is 213.5, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
