The Phoenix Suns simply cannot catch a break.
Just when it seemed like they were finally at full strength, Bradley Beal’s injury woes came right back to haunt them.
According to a report by Shams Charania of The Athletic, the former Washington Wizards star is currently dealing with several ailments (via Run it Back).
He reported that Beal underwent surgery on his broken nose during the All-Star Break, adding that he also tweaked his hamstring right before the break, and he’s now listed as questionable ahead of the team’s return to the court.
“Bradley Beal had surgery on a broken nose over the All-Star break, so that’s accounted for, that’s dealt with. But he also tweaked his hamstring right before the break, he’s listed as questionable tonight.”@ShamsCharania updates on Bradley Beal.

Charania pointed out that it’s the same hamstring he had already tweaked earlier in the season, so this is obviously a big concern for the organization.
Trading for Beal came with big risks because of his history of injuries, and he’s missed a big stretch of his first season in the desert.
The Suns have been utterly dominant with their Big 3 on the court, but not so much when one of their players has had to miss a game.
Needless to say, Kevin Durant and Devin Booker are still their most important players and they always put the team in a position to compete at the very least, but the Beal trade is starting to look like a headache for this organization.
It seems like he’s not going to be able to shake off those injury issues in the foreseeable future, and it’s not like he’s getting any younger, so this could only get worse over time.
