Ryan Dunn News, Rumors, Updates - Phoenix Suns

Questionable against Minnesota Dunn (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.

Impact Dunn is day-to-day with a left ankle sprain after imaging on his ankle came back negative, but he remains in jeopardy of missing consecutive outings Wednesday due to the injury. Should the rookie first-rounder be unable to suit up for the Suns against Minnesota, Royce O'Neale should remain in Phoenix's starting lineup while Bradley Beal takes on additional minutes from the second unit.

Not playing Monday vs. Clips Dunn (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Dunn rolled his left ankle in the first quarter of Saturday's 119-109 win over the Wizards, though the good news is that initial imaging on his ankle came back negative. Bradley Beal will likely be inserted back into the Suns' starting lineup due to Dunn's absence.

Initial imaging negative on ankle Head coach Mike Budenhozer said after Saturday's 119-109 win over the Wizards that initial imaging on Dunn's left ankle came back negative, Doug Haller of The Athletic reports.

Impact Dunn rolled his left ankle early in the first quarter of Saturday's game and did not return. Early tests and imaging seems to indicate that the rookie first-round pick avoided a major injury, but Dunn was seen leaving the arena on crutches, which puts his availability for Monday's game against the Clippers in serious doubt. Bradley Beal could return to the Suns' starting lineup should Dunn be out for a prolonged period of time.

Records double figures in defeat Dunn closed with 14 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds, one block and one steal over 22 minutes during Tuesday's 122-117 loss to the Hawks.

Impact Dunn provided a spark offensively to a Phoenix squad that was searching for a third contributor behind Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, ending as one of four Suns players in double figures in scoring in a losing effort. Dunn has posted a double-digit point total in 10 contests this season, doing so in three straight appearances.

Impact Dunn has started in each of the Suns' last six games, with the team going 4-2 in those contests. This was the fourth time he scored in double digits during that six-game stretch, and the rookie out of Virginia has found a way to produce on both ends of the court when given extended minutes. He's averaging 9.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and a combined 1.3 steals-plus-blocks across 18 starts in 2024-25.

Impact Making his fifth start in the last six games, Dunn produced solid numbers in a complementary role. The three made three-pointers were his highest total since Oct. 31, and the rookie forward may have earned a regular spot in the starting five, as Bradley Beal was shifted to the bench Monday. Over his last seven games, Dunn is averaging 9.4 points, 4.7 boards, 1.4 assists, 1.4 threes and 1.1 blocks in 27.1 minutes a contest.

Expected to start Dunn is expected to start in place of Bradley Beal against the 76ers on Monday, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.

Impact The Suns are seemingly shaking things up amid a four-game skid, moving Dunn into a starting role with Bradley Beal being slotted to the bench. Dunn is no stranger to the starting lineup, however, as he has logged 13 starts this season including four in the last five games. In his last four starts Dunn averaged 9.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in 24.5 minutes per contest.

Moves into starting five Dunn will start Saturday's game against the Pacers, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Tyus Jones (illness) is on the shelf for Saturday's game, so Devin Booker and Bradley Beal will hold down the fort in the backcourt with Dunn getting the nod on the wings. In 12 starts this season, Dunn holds averages of 8.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 1.5 three-pointers in 23.3 minutes.

Starting Wednesday Dunn is in the Suns' starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nuggets.

Impact With Devin Booker (groin) out for another game, the Suns needed a temporary replacement for their starting lineup. With Grayson Allen (concussion) also out and instead of Royce O'Neale, the Suns will have Dunn part of their starting five for Christmas night. As a rookie starter, Dunn is averaging 8.8 points and 2.9 rebounds in 23.3 minutes of play.

Limited production off bench Dunn produced five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 30 minutes during Monday's 117-90 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Dunn saw a sizable workload Monday, but didn't make a big dent on the stat sheet despite the absence of Devin Booker (groin). The rookie forward has had a quiet December, posting averages of 5.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 0.5 steals, 0.8 blocks and 0.7 three-pointers in 16.0 minutes across six appearances.

Delivers point per minute in return Dunn (ankle) scored 13 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and added two blocks, one steal and one rebound across 13 minutes Friday in the Suns' 134-126 win over the Jazz.

Impact The Suns were without Bradley Beal (knee) on Friday, but the team was otherwise back to full strength with Dunn, Kevin Durant (ankle) and Jusuf Nurkic (thigh) returning from three-, three- and five-game absences, respectively. While Dunn delivered strong numbers during his time on the court, he likely won't see his minutes climb much further now that Durant is back in the fold. Dunn's output on the defensive end (0.6 steals and 0.6 blocks in 17.6 minutes per game this season) was fully expected after he shined on that end of the court during his collegiate career at Virginia, but the rookie's development as a perimeter shooter has been a more unexpected surprise. He's knocking down 1.2 three-pointers per game at a 32.4 percent clip for Phoenix after going 12-for-51 from distance (23.5 percent) over his two seasons in college.

DECEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
