The Suns upgraded Oso Ighodaro from out to day-to-day with an oblique issue on Sunday. His expected return is listed as Oct. 26, the date of the Suns' game at the Thunder.
What happened
Oso Ighodaro moved from out to day-to-day on the injury report Sunday at 9:48 a.m. ET. The injury is listed as an oblique issue, torso. He had been out on Saturday. Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reported that Ighodaro was ruled out for Saturday's game against the Warriors. His status has changed often this week. He went from day-to-day to out on Friday, back to day-to-day later that day, and to out again on Saturday. Sunday's update is the fourth change in four days. His expected return is listed as Oct. 26.
What it means for the Suns
Phoenix plays at the Thunder on Monday, Oct. 26, at 8 p.m. ET. The Suns are 1-1 and sit 10th, on a one-game winning streak. Ighodaro has played one game, with 14.6 minutes, 8.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists. The Suns are 0-1 with him and 1-0 without him. In games without him, Devin Booker played 33.0 minutes and scored 33.0 points. Miles Bridges played 30.9 minutes and Dillon Brooks 30.3. Jalen Green played 25.6 minutes, Collin Gillespie 24.6 and Khaman Maluach 22.3. Jordan Goodwin played 20.9 and Luke Kennard 18.3. Mark Williams is also out with a left shoulder and arm issue.
What to watch
The next update to watch is the injury report before Monday's tip at the Thunder. Ighodaro's day-to-day label means his availability is not settled, and the report has changed several times this week. His expected return is listed as Oct. 26, the day of that game. No other return timeline has been announced. Williams remains out, so Phoenix's frontcourt minutes depend on both statuses. The Thunder game is the only game on the schedule right now.
