For the game, the Suns could be without their best player, as 2014 MVP Kevin Durant is on the injury report. Durant is averaging 27.1 points, 6.4 assists, 4.1 assists and 1.3 blocks per contest while shooting 52.3% from the field and 39.8% from the three-point range in 35 games.

Kevin Durant is questionable to suit up for the Suns after landing on the injury report with a left thumb injury.

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

All-Star Game starter Kevin Durant was not having it with negative Suns fans on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.

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.

Don’t be surprised to see the Suns rising as the second half of the regular season unfolds. They have all the pieces to be much better than what their current record indicates.

Durant's absence would be massive, as the recently elected All-Star has found the fountain of youth this season and has flashed prime Slim Reaper play on more than one occasion. Durant's 27.1 points per night leads the team.
