“Miracle”: Bradley Beal’s Return to Suns’ Starting Line-Up Has Fans Cross Fingered

Bradley Beal is back. After missing 5 consecutive games due to a sprained ankle, Bradley Beal will finally return to action tonight against the Charlotte Hornets.

That led to a nasty ankle sprain, putting him out of action for two weeks.

The Phoenix Suns fans were ecstatic to hear about Beal’s return to the starting line-up but had their fingers crossed to avoid another mishap.

Bradley Beal’s disappointing debut season in Phoenix

When Phoenix acquired 3-time All-Star Bradley Beal during the off-season, they hoped to create one of the most lethal offensive trios in the NBA. But Beal has been unable to deliver what was expected of him because of multiple injuries and bad luck. He has played only 6 games this season, averaging 14.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.2 assists. He missed several games at the beginning of the season to recover from his back issues. Beal returned to action on December 12 against the Golden State Warriors but injured his ankle just two games later.

Beal is one of the best scorers in the league when healthy. He was a scoring machine in Washington and hoped to do the same thing in Phoenix. He is finally back to full health, and it will be interesting to see how the rest of his season pans out. Phoenix is ranked 10th in the Western Conference with a 15-15 record. They need the firepower of Bradley Beal to get them into the playoffs and make a run for the Championship.
