Suns notes

Micic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday’s game versus Memphis.

Micic may have to wait to make his Suns debut while he deals with a left ankle sprain. The 31-year-old should provide valuable depth in the backcourt, though he is unlikely to receive significant minutes with his new club on a consistent basis. Over his last 10 appearances with the Hornets (five starts), Micic averaged 9.1 points, 3.7 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 23.9 minutes per contest.

Allen (knee) is probable for Tuesday’s game against the Grizzlies.

After logging a partial practice Monday, Allen is expected to return from a one-game absence due to left knee soreness Tuesday. Across his last seven games, the veteran sharpshooter has averaged 12.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 3.4 threes in 28.9 minutes while shooting 48.0 percent from deep.

Beal (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Beal will miss a third straight game due to left toe soreness. His next opportunity to suit up will be Wednesday against the Rockets, which is the Suns‘ last game before the All-Star break, so Phoenix may play it conservatively with Beal and have him sit out of both games of the back-to-back set. The good news for the Suns is that Kevin Durant will play Tuesday following a three-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, and his return should help to alleviate some pressure off Devin Booker on the offensive side of the floor.

Durant (ankle) is available for Tuesday’s game against the Grizzlies.

Durant has been sidelined for the Suns‘ last three games due to a left ankle sprain. He was able to practice Monday, and it appears he has progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Tuesday. Durant and Devin Booker will handle most of the offensive load due to Bradley Beal (toe) being ruled out. Since the beginning of January, Durant has averaged 25.9 points on 54.1 percent shooting, 5.5 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.4 blocks and 0.9 steals over 36.4 minutes per game.
