    Cameron Payne To Be Re-Evaluated In Two Weeks

    Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, according to head coach Monty Williams. Payne sprained his right foot on Wednesday, which isn't ideal for a Suns team that has lost their last five games. Chris Paul (hip) is day-to-day, while Devin Booker (groin) remains out for the foreseeable future. As a result, Landry Shamet and Duane Washington Jr., who combined for 24 points off 27 shots versus Miami on Friday, could see extra minutes moving ahead, with the former expected to start if Paul misses time. Nonetheless, Shamet and Washington could serve useful in deep fantasy formats. However, Shamet has a slight end in fantasy potential.

    Cameron Payne Unavailable Friday

    Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (foot) won't be able to take the court Friday against Miami. He left Wednesday's clash with Cleveland early and is nursing a sore right foot. Payne had only just returned from a nine-game absence, so he's had some really bad luck on the injury front. His absence gives Duane Washington Jr. an opportunity to play more, although he only logged two minutes on Wednesday and definitely isn't a reliable option for fantasy managers. Damion Lee should also benefit from the situation, and he's a much better target for managers, but Lee tends to blow hot and cold, so you never really know what you are going to get with him.

    Cameron Payne To Miss The Rest Of Wednesday's Game

    Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is not a good sign considering this was Payne's first game back after a nine-game absence due to a sprained right foot. There is a good chance that Payne misses more time from this injury, but fantasy managers will have to wait and see. Chris Paul would be asked to take on a heavier role, while Duane Washington Jr. would see more minutes off the bench. Washington could have some deep league appeal, assuming Payne does miss time from this injury.

    Cameron Payne Probable To Return On Monday Night

    Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) has missed the team's previous nine games due to a foot strain. Now, the 28-year-old is listed as probable to make his return on Monday night against the New York Knicks. The team could use him back in the lineup since Devin Booker remains sidelined. Payne has averaged 12.7 points, 5.3 assists, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.0 steals per game so far this season. Josh Okogie and Damion Lee will likely take a hit to their fantasy value with Payne back on the floor.

    Cameron Payne Remains Out Versus The Grizzlies

    Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) won't play on Tuesday versus Memphis, marking his seventh straight absence. The 28-year-old started 14 times this season while Chris Paul was out with a heel injury, averaging 15.1 points and 7.3 assists. With Devin Booker (groin) and Landry Shamet (Achilles) out as well, the team could have certainly used Payne back in the lineup. However, without him, Damion Lee, who scored 18 points in the Christmas meeting with Denver, should slide into the starting five.

    Cameron Payne Remains Out On Friday

    Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (foot) will miss a fifth consecutive game Friday against Memphis. He is dealing with a right foot sprain and it's helped Duane Washington Jr. to re-enter the rotation. With that said, it's very tough for any point guard to produce fantasy value with Chris Paul healthy in Phoenix, and Washington Jr. shouldn't be considered by fantasy managers. Payne did a great job in Paul's absence, averaging 15.1 points with 3.0 rebounds and 7.3 assists as a starter, but he's now gone back to the second unit and it greatly limits his fantasy outlook.

    Cameron Payne Out Again For Second Half Of Back-To-Back

    Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) will sit on Tuesday night for the team's second home game in as many nights. The 28-year-old will miss his fourth consecutive game with this ankle issue and there hasn't exactly been a firm timetable established for his return. Most strains, like his, seem to be more of a day-to-day consideration so fantasy managers will have to check back for any updates. Damion Lee is likely to keep seeing added time for as long as Payne has to remain sidelined.

    Cameron Payne Ruled Out Thursday

    Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (ankle) will sit Thursday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Payne twisted his ankle in their last game on Tuesday and will likely need a few days to heal. Josh Okogie and Damion Lee are in line to get extra minutes off the bench while veteran point guard Chris Paul plays the majority of the point guard minutes.

    Deandre Ayton, Cameron Payne Miss Wednesday’s Practice

    Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) and point guard Cameron Payne (foot) were both unable to suit up for Wednesday's practice session after having exited Tuesday's contest against Houston early. With Devin Booker (hamstring) already sidelined, Phoenix is facing widespread absences from key contributors ahead of Thursday's meeting with the Clippers. Ayton has produced his usual solid fantasy production in 2022-23, averaging 17 points and 9.5 boards per contest. An absence from the big man would pave the way for Jock Landale and Bismack Biyombo to get more minutes in the frontcourt. Payne has been a key second-unit contributor, with a potential absence funneling more shots in the direction of Landry Shamet and Damion Lee in the short-term.

    Cameron Payne Injured In Loss To Houston

    Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) exited Tuesday's loss to Houston with a right foot injury. He didn't return. While Chris Paul was sidelined with a heel issue, Payne took over and averaged 15.1 points and 7.3 assists while shooting 39.5% from deep in 14 starts. Although Paul has since returned, Payne still plays a pivotal role in the rotation. It's possible the 28-year-old won't be available against the Clippers for the Suns' final contest of a four-game road trip. If that's the case, Damion Lee and Josh Okogie may see additional work, even more so if Devin Booker (hamstring) can't suit up. However, both men should draw attention from only the most desperate of fantasy managers.
