Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Impresses off bench
Ighodaro totaled 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds, three steals and three blocks in 26 minutes during Thursday's 133-98 win over the Pacers.
Ighodaro shouldered a heavy workload Thursday with the Suns electing to hold Mark Williams (leg) out of the second leg of a back-to-back, and partly due to the score getting out of hand early in the second half. Ighodaro made the most of his chances, rarely missing from the field. He set season highs in minutes, points, rebounds, steals and blocks during the blowout victory.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Plays only 12 minutes in win
Ighodaro finished Wednesday's 123-114 win over the Mavericks with two points (1-2 FG), three rebounds and one steal in 12 minutes.
Ighodaro has seemingly fallen out of the rotation, splitting time with Nick Richards as the team's backup center behind Mark Williams after starting the first four games of the season. Ighodaro is averaging 3.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.3 steals and 0.5 blocks per game.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Blocks two shots Tuesday
Ighodaro accumulated two points (1-4 FG), five rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 118-107 loss to the Warriors.
Ighodaro has come off the bench for his past four appearances while Mark Williams takes over the starting center spot. That said, Ighodaro's workload hasn't been affected much, and he's averaging 4.8 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 17.8 minutes across the season.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Headed to bench
Ighodaro will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, Shane Young of Forbes.com reports.
Ighodaro started the first four games of the season for Phoenix, but he didn't do much with the opportunity, posting averages of 5.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and not much else in 19 minutes a night. It's unlikely those numbers will improve in the reserve role.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Starting regular-season opener
Ighodaro is part of the starting five for Wednesday's game against Sacramento.
Ighodaro rested in the Suns' preseason finale after being a fixture in the first unit during the team's earlier exhibitions. Even though Mark Williams, who didn't play in a preseason game, is available Wednesday, Ighodaro will remain Phoenix's starting center. It's unclear how many minutes Ighodaro will receive, as Williams is expected to play between 20 and 24 minutes.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Available for Wednesday
Ighodaro (rest) is available for Wednesday's season finale against the Kings, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Ighodaro joined most of the team's key players on the sidelines for the preseason finale, but he's cleared to return to the floor. With Phoenix's frontcourt fully healthy to start the new year, the 2024 second-rounder could be outside the rotation.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Won't play Tuesday
Ighodaro (rest) won't play in Tuesday's preseason finale against the Lakers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
The Suns are giving most of their key players the night off for Tuesday's exhibition, so expect big minutes for guys like Nigel Hayes-Davis and Khaman Maluach. Ighodaro is simply resting, so he will be fine for opening night.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Game-high three blocks Friday
Ighodaro (hand) notched 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one steal and three blocks in 22 minutes during Friday's preseason win over the Nets.
Ighodaro was spotted with a wrap on his hand early in Friday's matchup, per Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic, but that didn't stop him from delivering a strong two-way performance. The issue figures to be of minimal concern, but it's something to monitor ahead of Sunday's rematch with Brooklyn. With Mark Williams (undisclosed) sidelined, Ighodaro continues to start at center during the preseason.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Grabs nine boards in preseason win
Ighodaro logged five points (2-4 FG, 1-6 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal over 26 minutes in Friday's 103-81 preseason win over the Lakers.
Ighodaro led both teams in rebounding Friday, though he wasn't able to convert on his free-throw opportunities. The 2024 second-rounder saw an uptick in playing time towards the tail end of his rookie season. He averaged 6.6 points on 64.6 percent shooting, 5.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.8 blocks over 25.6 minutes per game over the final 17 games (four starts) of the 2024-25 campaign. Ighodaro could see meaningful minutes as the first big man off the bench for the upcoming season.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Strong scoring effort in SL loss
Ighodaro chipped in 17 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-10 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 31 minutes in Wednesday's 89-85 Summer League loss to the Timberwolves.
Ighodaro struggled at the free-throw line Wednesday but turned in an otherwise strong scoring effort. He played in 61 games (six starts) during his 2024-25 rookie season, averaging 4.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 17.1 minutes per contest.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Fills up stat sheet in loss
Ighodaro finished with 18 points (8-12 FG, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks across 29 minutes during Sunday's 98-80 Summer League loss to the Hawks.
Ighodaro continues to play well during the Summer League in Las Vegas, as he came one rebound short of recording a second straight double-double. His motivation level is undoubtedly high, considering he's trying to prove he deserves a roster spot in a crowded frontcourt in Phoenix or on another squad in the NBA.

Suns' Oso Ighodaro: Crashes glass in win
Ighodaro racked up 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 FT), 14 rebounds, two assists and three steals during Friday's Summer League 103-84 win against the Wizards.
Ighodaro was a monster on the glass Friday, as he grabbed a game-high 14 boards. The Marquette product has gotten off to a good start in Summer League. He'll try to prove his worth now that Phoenix has a crowded frontcourt headlined by Mark Williams, Nick Richards (elbow) and rookie Khaman Maluach at the center position.
