The Phoenix Suns have been without starters in guard Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks for multiple games now. Green injured his hamstring ahead of preseason activities and hasn't played in any regular season action while Brooks missed Friday's battle against the Utah Jazz with a core muscle strain, his third straight contest.

The Utah Jazz couldn't put together a winning effort in their first NBA Cup matchup of the year vs. the Phoenix Suns, falling flat for a 96-118 loss to drop to 2-3, and what ends up as their lowest offensive total through the first five games of the year.
