Allen closed with 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 121-113 loss to the Timberwolves. Allen and Bradley Beal continue to provide a strong scoring punch off the bench for Phoenix's offense.

Bradley Beal started the second half for Dunn, who replaced him in the starting lineup beginning Jan. 6 at Philadelphia. Suns coach Mike Budenholzer moved Jusuf Nurkic and Beal to the bench starting that game.

Won't play Wednesday

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 as questionable with a left ankle sprain.

The Suns are showing interest in Hawks sharpshooter Bogdan Bogdanovic as trade speculation surrounding Jusuf Nurkic grows.

Kevin Durant, who was questionable heading into the game with a thumb injury, scored a team-high 33 points (13-19 FG) for the Suns to go along with seven assists and four blocks.

The Minnesota Timberwolves rode a pivotal fourth-quarter run to a 121-113 road win over the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday in a chippy contest featuring a bevy of technical fouls.

Bradley Beal, Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale could all see extra minutes for the rest of Saturday's contest while Dunn is sidelined.

What if instead of making a blockbuster trade that lands the Phoenix Suns Jimmy Butler and frees them of Bradley Beal, they made multiple smaller trades to maximize their offseason flexibility?
