The Phoenix Suns ruled center Mark Williams (left foot soreness) out of Sunday’s playoff series opener at the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Grayson Allen (left hamstring strain) was also questionable for Sunday and will “test it out” in warm-ups, Suns coach Jordan Ott said.
Williams previously played 22 minutes in Phoenix’s first play-in game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday before missing Friday’s second play-in game against the Golden State Warriors entirely.
He had a questionable designation for both play-in games as well as Sunday’s Game 1 before being ruled out.
