The Phoenix Suns currently stand in 4th place in the Pacific Division. They have had some hurdles along the way, having to sideline top players like Devin Booker and Bradley Beal for a number of games due to injuries. Booker had a string of unfortunate events this season, having sprained his ankle during the season debut game against the Warriors which was followed by a right calf strain in the game against the Spurs.
Beal, on the other hand, has been suffering from persistent back issues and has been able to play only 3 games in the season so far. However, the fans will be happy to hear that both Booker and Beal will be making a comeback on Wednesday against the Wolves, finally making the Suns’ Big Three debut, joining Kevin Durant on the court.

The Suns are currently at a negative, with only four wins out of ten games in the season. Durant had been somehow keeping the team afloat, and with the return of Booker and Beal, we can be hopeful that the tides will be changed for the Suns, who have been struggling to make a breakthrough.

Durant has been holding the fort down
Kevin Durant could very well be crying tears of joy right now, at the prospect of making the Power Trio debut. He has somehow managed to hold things together for a while, but it is about time he gets some support. Moreover, pocketing a win would greatly boost the morale of the Suns and the fans.
To be realistic, Booker will somehow be rusty and lack endurance. He paid the price when they made him rush back against the Spurs. So it will be wise for now to minimize his minutes until he gets comfortable again. With the trio in place, the Suns ought to be a dominating offensive force.
