This article was originally published on www.si.com/nba/nets/onsi as Suns’ Star Could see Possible Return vs. Nets. The Nets are set to take on the Phoenix Suns tonight on the second night of a back-to-back, looking to rebound from a blowout loss.

The Nets come into this game following a 124-102 loss against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday in which Brooklyn wasn't ready to play in the beginning of the game and fell behind 39-22 at the end of the first quarter as a result.

PHOENIX — The return of Jalen Green is nearing. The Phoenix Suns' initial injury report ahead of their Monday clash against the Brooklyn Nets is listing Green as questionable with his right hamstring strain that's kept him out for all but five quarters this season.

Suns first-year head coach Jordan Ott spent four seasons (2018-22) in Brooklyn as an assistant. He now finds himself in the Coach of the Year conversation as Phoenix is playing above expectations after a 36-win season under Mike Budenholzer.

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker continues to slowly but surely etch his name in not only Suns franchise history, but also the NBA's as well. Booker surpassed Steve Nash in the NBA's all-time scoring list in last night's win over the New York Knicks.

Devin Booker came back from a one-game absence to score 27 points on Saturday night for the visiting Phoenix Suns, who mounted the final surge in a back-and-forth contest to defeat the reeling New York Knicks 106-99.

The two teams square off for the second time this season. The Suns defeated the Knicks 112-107 in their last meeting on Jan. 10. Devin Booker led the Suns with 31 points, and Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 27 points.

The Brooklyn Nets will face off against the Phoenix Suns for the first time this season. The Nets fell to the Chicago Bulls in the second game of a home and home set, as they went to work without Michael Porter Jr. and Drake Powell. The Suns are coming off a 106-99 win over the New York Knicks on Saturday, as they've won 10 of their last 14 games.

The Phoenix Suns lost the free throw battle in the fourth quarter of their Jan. 15 loss to the Detroit Pistons.
