Dillon Brooks left the Suns’ thrilling double-overtime win over the Magic after just seven minutes of play with a hand injury Saturday. Shortly after the game, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported that Brooks suffered a broken left hand and will be sidelined.
Brooks’s injury comes just after star guard Devin Booker sustained a hip strain in Thursday’s game against the Spurs. Booker will be out at least one week, according to the Associated Press and ESPN. In Brooks’s first season in Phoenix, he’s averaging 21.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game. Booker scores 24.7 points a night for the Suns, leaving Phoenix without its top two scorers for at least the next few games.
