The injury news for the Phoenix Suns keeps getting worse.
After losing star guard Devin Booker to a hip strain suffered in Thursday's game, the Suns fear forward Dillon Brooks could be out for an extended period of time with a hand injury.
ESPN is reporting Brooks broke his left hand in the first quarter of a double-overtime win over the Orlando Magic on Saturday, Feb. 21. ESPN reported that doctors will meet Sunday to determine a timetable for his recovery.
Brooks, who's averaging 21.2 points per game, had scored five points in seven minutes against the Magic before the injury occurred.
The Suns (33-24) have been a surprise playoff contender this season under first-year head coach Jordan Ott, with Brooks among the biggest contributors.
Booker, meanwhile, is the team's leading scorer at 24.7 points per game.
With neither of their big guns on the floor, the Suns' leading active scorer would be guard Grayson Allen at 17.3 points a game.
