What happened to Jusuf Nurkic?

Suns center Jusuf Nurkic reportedly rolled his ankle early in the third quarter during the game against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Although he managed to walk back to the locker room, it was evident he did so gingerly.

Consequently, he was ruled out for the remainder of the contest. Since then, he has missed two games, against the Denver Nuggets and the first part of the back-to-back matchups against the Clippers.

James Harden injury update

Harden, who has been grappling with right foot soreness in recent days, was sidelined for Tuesday's game against the Suns. This absence follows a two-game stint on the sidelines in mid-March due to a shoulder injury. He also opted out of participating in the team's shootaround session.

Harden's status for Tuesday's matchup was a last-minute addition to the injury report, and he was subsequently ruled out before tipoff.
