Phoenix Suns superstar forward Kevin Durant and rookie Ryan Dunn are both available for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Footprint Center to end a three-game homestand. Durant was previously listed as questionable with a left thumb injury while Dunn was also listed questionable with a left ankle sprain.

Phoenix, who has won eight of its past 11 games, will greatly miss Dunn against the Clippers' dynamic offensive duo of James Harden and Kawhi Leonard. Los Angeles has a pretty clean injury report with Kris Dunn (left knee injury management), Cam Christie (left ankle sprain) and Jordan Miller (illness) all listed as out.

"Obviously I’m a player so I’m trying to play but it’s not up to me,” Dunn said.

The Phoenix Suns are expected to use another new starting lineup in Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers after ruling out key player.

Led by Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, the Western Conference's eighth-place Suns have played well in January, winning seven of their last nine, and are 8-4 overall this month. The Clippers are sixth in the West standings, led by veteran stars James Harden and Kawhi Leonard, plus their top scorer this season Norman Powell.

For those still holding onto optimism regarding the Phoenix Suns' chances at becoming a contender this season, they continue to test your faith.

Ryan Dunn was ruled out prior to tip-off due to an ankle sprain suffered early in Phoenix's victory over the Washington Wizards, so the Suns had to adapt once again. Head coach Mike Budenholzer opted to keep the same starting lineup intact that contributed to the victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday.

The Phoenix Suns (24-21) play the final of their homestand against the Minnesota Timberwolves (25-21) on Wednesday.

The Suns listed All-Star Kevin Durant as questionable to play in Wednesday's home game against the Timberwolves due to a left thumb injury.

The Phoenix Suns (24-21) play the final of their homestand against the Minnesota Timberwolves (25-21) on Wednesday.

For the Suns, they need Durant in the lineup to continue their recent hot streak. Phoenix has won three consecutive games and eight of their last 10 contests. They now sit eighth in the Western Conference standings with a 24-21 record after falling all the way to 12th in the standings.
