Tonight the Suns close out the preseason when the Brisbane Bullets visit. The good news is this game is on television for those who have FSAZ. Game time is scheduled for 7 p.m. Arizona time.

In regard to injuries this is the latest I have heard.

Booker participated in Thursday’s practice. Warren was limited.

I live in Utah and get FSAZ for Yotes and DBacks, but Suns are blacked out here (stupid Jazz!). I have League Pass but it does not appear to be on it tonight. :(

Try streaming the game. I usually can find a link somewhere.

Perhaps someone can help out?

Watson is reportedly going to give a peek of the Suns starting lineup so it may be worth the look. I'm particularly interested if the Suns start Chandler over Len.

He should start Len IMO.

I'm surprised you think this is even a debate. OF COURSE Chandler will be the starter over Len.

I think the Suns will start Chandler but I think this is making a huge statement about Len who is now entering his fifth season.

I would be surprised if Len starts but if the Suns have confidence in Len going forward he should start.

So I think who starts at center should be significant.

I think that statement was made when around a month ago when Len still didn't have a contract and the Suns did not seem to care either way.

I do not think the Suns answer at center is on the roster unless Bender can turn into Porzingis some day.

If there is even a small chance Len could be our future then you start him and keep starting him. This is the last chance with Len so you don't jerk around with Chandler.

If you want to insult Len and have a 0% chance of resigning him then keep starting Chandler over Len.

Cool down Jack Merridew... it's an 82 game season, don't need to put lines in the sand quite yet. If Len isn't trash he will get plenty of opportunity to show it.

I think it's better for the other youngsters (i.e. Booker, Jackson, Chriss) if they play with Chandler, so I'd start Chandler.

Better in what way? Chandler played with the youngsters last season and we stunk up the league.

Better for their development (e.g. on-court adjustments, keeping their attitudes in-check, etc. (leadership stuff). I'd rather have a veteran presence on the floor. Chandler's primary objective is to help these guys, not look for his own numbers. Maybe give Dudley that role with 2nd unit when he returns.

Chandler, Bledsoe, Booker, Jackson and Chriss start the game for the Suns.

The Suns are substituting freely as they jump to a 28-7 lead.

Bender is an excellent ball handler and passer. He looks to set-up teammates.

They got no answer for Alex Len.

Dare I say, "unstoppable"
