Gordon or Allen can start in his place. Not going to get too excited about this season because of the word that we dare not say.

Not having Beal sucks, but IMO the team without Beal is still pretty damn good. If anything, no Beal doesn't really affect our defensive efficiency, and might even improve it.

The biggest problem will be lacking the gravity that him just being on the court provides on offense.

The difference between this Suns team and the playoff team of last season is that they are loaded with quality depth and have players on the bench that could be starters on other teams.

Yes, they have three stars, but I think their depth will be pivotal. Hopefully it will allow the Suns to get to the playoffs healthy.

KD's FIRST game in Golden State since he was a player there -- hard to believe.

I expect him to start slow but then explode for 40, especially with no Bradley Beal playing.

Scott Foster will be in the replay center for the Warriors game.

Yes, I still fully expect us to win as long as Booker plays.

Also, I really had no doubt that Book would play. No way a sore toe is going to keep him out of the season opener. Unless it was REALLY bad.

It looks like a game time decision on whether Bradley Beal will play.

My sources tell me Beal is game time decision but most likely out. If he does play it would be limited mins. Its a marathon.. not a sprint.. we still have a long season so they want to be careful..

Grayson Allen will start in place of Bradley Beal.
