Slides to bench Tuesday Dunn will come off the bench in Tuesday's game against the Lakers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact With Bradley Beal (calf) making his return to game action after a five-game absence streak, Dunn will retreat to the bench. In his last five outings (five starts), the rookie has averaged 6.8 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 22.8 minutes per game.

Modest production in start Dunn ended Sunday's 127-118 overtime loss to the Kings with eight points (4-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one block and one steal in 21 minutes.

Impact Dunn returned to action following a one-game absence due to an ankle injury, and with Kevin Durant (ankle) sidelined, the rookie was thrust into a starting role. However, Dunn failed to capitalize on his third career start, as Royce O'Neale (28) and Grayson Allen (27) played more minutes off the bench. Regardless, with Durant sidelined for at least a few weeks, Dunn should maintain an increased role even if he moves to the bench, especially if Bradley Beal (knee) is forced to miss time.

Starting Sunday Dunn is in the Sun's starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact Dunn missed Friday's game against the Mavericks due to an ankle injury.

Through eight regular-season games (including two starts), Dunn is averaging 6.8 points and 2.3 rebounds over 15.9 minutes per game.

Available Sunday Dunn (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Kings.

Impact As expected, Dunn will return to action Sunday after missing his first game of the season Friday due to an ankle injury. The rookie's playing time and production has been sporadic, but he's averaged 6.8 points and 2.3 rebounds in 15.8 minutes over eight appearances (two starts).

Impact Dunn missed his first game of the season Friday due to an ankle injury but is expected to return to action against Sacramento. If Dunn is able to suit up, he should continue to be one of Phoenix's primary bench options in their forward rotation.

Out Friday Dunn (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Mavericks, Evan Sidery of Forbes.com reports.

Impact The 21-year-old was considered doubtful for Friday's contest after suffering an ankle sprain Wednesday against Miami, so it's not a surprise he won't be available in Dallas. Dunn's next chance to take the court will come Sunday versus the Kings.

NOVEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful for Friday Dunn (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's matchup against the Mavericks, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Dunn sprained his left ankle during Wednesday's win over Miami and is not likely to suit up against Dallas on Friday. While the rookie made the trip to Dallas, there is a good chance he misses his first game of the season. Dunn has provided solid two-way play for the Suns thus far, and he has averaged 6.8 points and 2.3 rebounds across 15.9 minutes per game in eight regular-season outings (two starts).

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Diagnosed with ankle sprain Dunn ended with seven points (2-2 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one assist over nine minutes during Wednesday's 115-112 win over Miami. He left the contest in the fourth qu...

Impact Dunn limped back to the locker room late in Wednesday's contest and did not return. While he's set to undergo further testing Thursday, he received an initial diagnosis of a sprained left ankle. The 21-year-old rookie has been a quality addition to the Suns rotation, and he's shooting 13-for-33 (39.4 percent) from three-point range after being considered a non-shooter in college. If he's forced to miss time, expect Royce O'Neale and Grayson Allen to pick up the slack. Dunn's next chance to play comes Friday at Dallas.

Goes to locker room Dunn limped back to the locker room during Wednesday's game against the Heat for undisclosed reasons, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact It's unclear when Dunn suffered the injury, but it forced him back to the locker room. While he's idle, Royce O'Neale and Grayson Allen could see more minutes.

Back to bench Saturday Dunn is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Portland.

Impact Dunn was in the starting five against the Clippers on Thursday, and he finished with 16 points, four rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes. He'll retreat to the bench for Saturday's game as Bradley Beal (elbow) returns.

NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Fills in with 16 points Dunn amassed 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-9 3Pt), four rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes during Thursday's 125-119 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Beal (elbow) sat out to rest his elbow, giving Dunn his second start of the season.The Virginia product was expected to be more of a development player, but he's already making an impact, especially on defense. He's versatile enough to fill in at multiple positions, and his 6-6 frame is deceiving thanks to a huge wingspan. Dunn's results are bad news for those who drafted Grayson Allen, as his role will be compromised if Dunn sees steady improvement.

Gets starting nod Dunn is starting Thursday's game against the Clippers.

Impact Dunn will draw the start at small forward in place of Bradley Beal, who was ruled out with sprained left elbow. Dunn put together a decent performance in his first career NBA start Saturday against the Mavs, recording 13 points, one rebound and one assist in 21 minutes.

Retreats to bench Monday Dunn will come off the bench in Monday's game against the Lakers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Bradley Beal (elbow) will reclaim his spot in the starting lineup with Dunn sliding to the bench. The rookie started in Beal's absence Saturday, during which he tallied 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt) and a rebound across 21 minutes in the 114-102 win over Dallas.

Starting vs. Dallas Dunn is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Mavericks, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Dunn will make the first regular-season start of his NBA career with Bradley Beal (elbow) and Grayson Allen (personal) ruled out. Dunn has averaged 5.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game in his first two appearances this season, both coming off the bench.

Back to bench Dunn isn't starting Thursday's preseason game against the Lakers.

Impact Dunn looked sharp in a rare opportunity to start Sunday against the Nuggets, dropping 20 points in 30 minutes. However, he'll return to a reserve role Thursday with the Phoenix starters back in action.

OCTOBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Excellent vs. Denver Dunn delivered 20 points (7-15 FG, 6-11 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists, two steals and three blocks across 30 minutes in Sunday's 118-114 preseason win over the Nuggets.

Impact Dunn co-led the Suns in scoring Sunday, but his contributions on the defensive end of the court are even more important, as that will probably hand him a role in the rotation as the season progresses. The rookie is a player worth targeting in several dynasty formats, but in the absence of a steady role in the rotation of a contender, fantasy managers should overlook Dunn in standard formats for the time being.

Blocks two shots in start Friday Dunn closed with five points (1-6 FG, 1-5 3PT, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Friday's preseason loss to the Pistons.

Impact Dunn moved into the starting lineup, replacing Devin Booker who was given the night off. Although Dunn impressed on the defensive end, he struggled to find his rhythm offensively. At this stage, he is no certainty to make the nightly rotation. Managers can overlook him in all formats, barring dynasty.

Starting Friday Dunn will start at small forward in Friday's exhibition matchup versus the Pistons.

Impact Dunn will get an opportunity to shine for the Suns, as he will get the start over Devin Booker in the Suns' third preseason game. He is not a lock for a rotation spot as a depth wing, so he will look to make an impression against Detroit.

OCTOBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to action Sunday Dunn (knee) checked in during the first quarter of Sunday's preseason game against the Lakers, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Dunn missed the Suns' final Summer League game back in July due to left knee soreness, but that didn't impact his availability during training camp. The No. 28 overall pick will lean on his defensive ability to carve a consistent role off the bench for Phoenix in his rookie year.
