PHX • Point Guard and Shooting Guard • #30

Goodwin sprained his left ankle during Wednesday’s win over the Mavericks and did not return. With the Suns knowing their seed for next week’s Play-In Tournament, the priority for the final two regular-season games will be to ensure that everyone is healthy for Tuesday’s 7/8 game in Phoenix. Goodwin’s absence on Friday will likely push Collin Gillespie back into the starting lineup.

Goodwin injured his left ankle during the first half and was ruled out during the halftime break. He finished with nine points (3-of-7 FGs), three rebounds, one assist, one steal and three three-pointers in 13 minutes. Collin Gillespie, who was in the starting lineup until recently, started the third quarter for Goodwin.

Goodwin left Thursday’s loss to the Hornets with calf and back injuries, but he was a full participant in Saturday’s practice. He’ll get rotation minutes on Sunday, but it’s unlikely that Goodwin will do enough to affect fantasy basketball.

Goodwin played 12 minutes in Thursday’s defeat, with his night coming to an end late in the third quarter. The Suns guard had his right arm landed on by Hornets center Ryan Kalkbrenner, but that was not the issue that forced his exit. Following the game, Suns head coach Jordan Ott said Goodwin injured his left calf, the same one that sidelined him for seven games in late February/early March. A potential absence would not affect fantasy basketball, but it would leave the Suns shorthanded on the wings.

After providing limited value in his first two starts for the injured Royce O’Neale (knee), Goodwin was more impactful on Sunday. The 14 points were the most he’s scored in a game since February 21, which was the last game he played before being sidelined by a strained calf. Add in the rebounds, steals and three-pointers, and Sunday was a good finish to Week 21 for Goodwin and those streaming him. With the Suns playing two games in Week 22, it’s safe to move on, even if O’Neale has to miss more time.

Goodwin moved into the starting lineup on Thursday, filling the void left by Royce O’Neale (knee). Unfortunately, while he did provide solid value in rebounds and steals, the scoring was absent. Goodwin isn’t much of a scorer, so that isn’t much of a surprise. The few who streamed him will be pleased with the rebounds and steals while understanding that he offers limited long-term value when the Suns are whole.

With Royce O’Neale (knee) sidelined for this game, Goodwin will get the starting nod. This will be his first start since before the All-Star break, but he should provide some extra defensive production in an increased role.

With Goodwin recently returning from a calf strain, his ability to play both games of the Suns’ back-to-back is encouraging. However, his fantasy potential is limited since the Suns are otherwise healthy on the perimeter.

Goodwin had missed seven games with a calf injury before returning to play 14 minutes against the Bucks on Tuesday. He was on the injury report for injury management reasons, but it seems like he will be able to suit up on Thursday. We would still expect something about 20 minutes as he works his way back.

Goodwin is on the report for calf injury management reasons, as Thursday’s game is the first of two in as many nights for the Suns. With Rasheer Fleming and Grayson Allen also questionable, Rasheer Fleming may be asked to take on a more significant workload against the lottery-bound Pacers.

Goodwin has missed seven straight games, but he’ll get back on the court to face Milwaukee on the road. He should see meaningful minutes in Phoenix’s rotation while Dillon Brooks is out, and Goodwin should remain part of the rotation when Brooks returns.

Goodwin has missed the Suns’ last seven games, last seeing action on February 21 in a win over the Magic. He was able to play some 5-on-5 on Sunday, and the questionable tag suggests that Goodwin’s calf has responded well in the aftermath of that session. His return will give the Suns additional depth on the wings as they await Dillon Brooks’ return from a fractured hand.

Goodwin strained his left calf during a February 21 win over Orlando and was given a re-evaluation timeline of one to two weeks. Whether he’s available for Tuesday’s game will depend on how Goodwin’s calf responds to Sunday’s 5-on-5 session. Once available, he’ll provide additional depth on the perimeter, which is needed with Dillon Brooks (hand) sidelined.

Good suffered a left calf strain in Saturday’s win over the Magic, and he’ll join Dillon Brooks on the sideline for an extended period of time. Collin Gillespie could be in line for big minutes moving forward, and he needs to be rostered in standard fantasy leagues.

Goodwin, who exited Saturday’s win over the Magic during the fourth quarter, has been diagnosed with a strained left calf. With Devin Booker and Dillon Brooks also out, the Suns will be down at least three rotation guards. Grayson Allen and Jalen Green are also considered questionable for Sunday’s game. If Collin Gillespie is sitting on the waiver wire, pick him up.

Goodwin injured his left calf during the fourth quarter of Saturday’s double-overtime win over the Magic. After taking an awkward step and grabbing his left calf during an offensive possession, Goodwin gave a foul and headed to the locker room immediately. With Devin Booker (hip) out for at least one week and Dillon Brooks (hand) going down during the first quarter, the Suns could be extremely light on perimeter options for Sunday’s game against the Trail Blazers.

Rostered in four percent of Yahoo! leagues, nights like Tuesday serve as a reminder of Goodwin’s value, especially while the Suns are without Devin Booker and Jalen Green. His double-double was accompanied by five steals, one shy of his career-high. Over the past two weeks, Goodwin has been close to a top-100 player in terms of per-game value. If Booker and Green remain out for Thursday’s game against the Warriors, deep-league managers should strongly consider streaming Goodwin if he’s sitting on the waiver wire.

Goodwin moved back to the bench earlier this week when Collin Gillespie returned from a hand injury. The 27-year-old has an interesting skillset which includes effective rebounding and excellent defense, though his scoring is inconsistent. With Devin Booker sidelined Friday, Goodwin came off the bench and hit five three-pointers against the Cavaliers. He’s returned 15th-round per game value over the last two weeks, but isn’t necessarily worth rostering in most fantasy leagues.

Goodwin got the starting nod for the third time this season, but he wasn’t able to take advantage of the increased opportunity. He has been incredibly effective as a rebounder when he’s gotten the chance this year, which held up in this game. He has some streaming appeal if Collin Gillespie (hand) remains out, but most of his impact will come on the glass and defensively. He only added one steal in this game, but he is averaging 1.4 swipes per game this year.

With Collin Gillespie (hand) joining Devin Booker (ankle) and Jalen Green (hamstring) as out for this game, Goodwin will start for the third time this season. Goodwin has had some productive stretches this year, and with Phoenix missing multiple key backcourt pieces, he should be able to provide strong value as a starter.

While Goodwin has been ranked well outside the top-100 in eight- and nine-cat formats, he had another good night off the bench. He only needed 20 minutes to record Tuesday’s stat line, a performance that should go a long way toward guaranteeing him a spot in the rotation with Jalen Green (hamstring) making his return. Goodwin isn’t worth rostering in most leagues, but that could change if the Suns were to lose a wing to injury.

While he did not record a blocked shot, Goodwin’s final stat line was a reminder of what he can provide on a nightly basis. He made the most of his scoring opportunities and was solid as a facilitator and defender. Over the past two weeks, Goodwin has offered 12th-round per-game value in eight-cat formats. He isn’t a must-roster player, but Goodwin can have value in deep leagues.

The Suns don’t look to Goodwin for much scoring, but his defensive abilities make him a player who has to be in the rotation. The 12 rebounds were three shy of his season-high, and Goodwin matched his high in steals. He still isn’t a player who should be rostered in most leagues, but Goodwin is averaging 24.0 minutes per game over the past month.

Goodwin put together one of the best shooting performances of his career in this one, setting new career-high marks for points (26) and three-pointers (eight) as he knocked down a surreal 8-of-13 from beyond the arc. It was the third 20-point performance of his career. His combination of scoring upside and strong rebounding give him some appeal in deeper fantasy leagues but he’ll need to stay hot from distance to be a reliable option.

Goodwin was one of three Suns reserves to hit double figures on Saturday. The 16 points were a season high and four more than his total in Phoenix’s prior two games. While this was undoubtedly an encouraging performance for Goodwin, he has not reached the point where he should be rostered in fantasy leagues.

Goodwin has been upgraded from questionable to available, and he’ll provide additional depth on the wings with Ryan Dunn (wrist) still out. However, with Grayson Allen (quad) available, Goodwin has a lower fantasy ceiling, even if Allen’s minutes are restricted.

The Suns have four key players listed as questionable against the Nuggets on Saturday. That list includes Goodwin, who is somewhat of a stranger to the injury report compares to his teammates. With Goodwin, Grayson Allen and Ryan Dunn all questionable, Collin Gillespie is the obvious beneficiary and preferred streamer given the injury situation.

With Jalen Green, Grayson Allen and Ryan Dunn all out due to injury, Goodwin was tabbed to make his first start of the season on Sunday. He recorded his first double-double of the season, doing everything but block a shot. Collin Gillespie, whose opportunities have also increased due to the injuries, added 15 points, three rebounds, six assists, one steal and three three-pointers in 29 minutes off the bench. As long as the Suns are shorthanded on the perimeter, Gillespie and Goodwin will have value in deep leagues.
