Bradley Beal injury status vs. Bulls
Listed as questionable to play on Tuesday and throughout the day on Wednesday, Bradley Beal is set to make his debut with the Suns against the Bulls, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.
This is a positive sign for Suns fans who are awaiting the much-anticipated regular-season Phoenix debut of the three-time All-Star shooting guard, especially when the reports surrounding Beal's physical status for the past few weeks haven't exactly been positive.
Last week, according to Duane Rankin of AZ Central, Bradley Beal's back injury was a legitimate “concern” for the Suns and that he “hasn't been right for weeks”. Rankin added that the Suns thought Devin Booker was much closer to a return than Beal was. Booker, despite returning during the Suns' Thursday night battle against the San Antonio Spurs, has proceeded to miss their next few games, including their Wednesday night tilt against the Bulls, causing more concern for Beal's physical well-being.
But with Booker out, Beal's return to the court will be a welcome sight for Kevin Durant, who has found life without his two co-stars to be a difficult one. Durant has been overburdened on the offensive end, shouldering an inordinate shot-creation workload in Booker and Beal's absences, although strong reinforcement appears to be on sight with Beal knocking on the door of a return to the hardwood.
The answer to the question of whether or not Bradley Beal is playing tonight vs. the Bulls has been answered.
