Suns' Dillon Brooks: Questionable to face Utah
Rotowire
Brooks (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Jazz.

Suns' Dillon Brooks: Four steals in Denver
Rotowire
Brooks chipped in 15 points (6-18 FG, 3-13 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 133-111 loss to the Nuggets.
The 29-year-old wing has been flashing his defensive skills to begin his tenure with the Suns, recording multiple steals -- and eight in total -- in his first three games of the season. Brooks has also been more involved in the offense than usual while the team waits for Jalen Green (hamstring) to get healthy, attempting double-digit three-pointers in back-to-back contests and averaging 19.3 points and 3.0 threes so far.

Suns' Dillon Brooks: Posts team-high 21 points
Rotowire
Brooks chipped in 21 points (7-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Friday's 129-102 loss to the Clippers.
Devin Booker was struggling throughout the contest, so Brooks took it upon himself to get the offense going. He drilled five three-pointers in the loss and had a great all-around performance, proving his worth for s second consecutive game. He's taken 41 shots over the first two games of the season, so perhaps he'll have a slightly more offensive role with his new team.

Suns' Dillon Brooks: Impresses with 22 points
Rotowire
Brooks chipped in 22 points (9-24 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 120-116 win over the Kings.
Although Brooks' shot was a bit off in the opener, he executed well on the defensive end. Brooks appears to be locked into a first-unit role, as the return of Jalen Green (hamstring) will have a greater effect on Ryan Dunn's current spot in the rotation. Given the starting role with his new team, Brooks should receive additional consideration in all fantasy formats.

Suns' Dillon Brooks: Green light for Wednesday
Rotowire
Brooks (face) is available for Wednesday's season opener against Sacramento, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Brooks needed six stitches after a collision in Saturday's practice, but that won't prevent him from suiting up against the Kings. The veteran swingman is projected to be Phoenix's starting power forward in 2025-26, but his fantasy value will likely be held back by his lack of production across the board. Brooks averaged 14.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.5 three-pointers per game for Houston during last year's regular season.

Suns' Dillon Brooks: Elbowed in practice
Rotowire
Brooks (face) received six stitches Saturday after a collision in the day's practice, Shane Young of Forbes.com reports.
Brooks took an elbow to the face during Saturday's practice but downplayed the severity of the injury. The veteran wing, who joined the Suns in June as part of the Kevin Durant trade with the Rockets, averaged 14.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists across 75 regular-season appearances last year. With the team set to open the 2025-26 season Wednesday against the Kings, the stitches Brooks received aren't expected to impact his availability.
Brooks (rest) has been ruled out for Tuesday's preseason game against the Lakers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Brooks will miss the preseason finale for rest purposes. The Suns are prioritizing rest for their top players, with Devin Booker also among the notable names that will not suit up.
Suns' Dillon Brooks: Full stat line in exhibition win
Rotowire
Brooks logged 18 points (7-18 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, three assists, two steals and one block in 27 minutes during Friday's preseason win over Brooklyn.
It wasn't the most efficient shooting display, but Brooks filled the box score while working to shake off any potential offseason rust. The veteran swingman is set to be Phoenix's starting power forward in 2025-26, but his fantasy appeal will likely remain limited by his lack of contributions across the board. Brooks averaged 14.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.5 three-pointers per game for Houston during the regular season last year.
