Suns guard Bradley Beal is poised to miss at least three weeks of action due to a lower back strain, the team announced Friday.
Beal, acquired from the Wizards in a blockbuster offseason trade, has played in just three of Phoenix’s first 11 games this season. He’s averaging 17.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game for the Suns.
Beal is a three-time All-Star whom the Suns were looking forward to teaming with superstars Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, but the trio has yet to appear together in a regular-season game.
