The lineup was missing Suns guard Bradley Beal (ankle), forward Josh Okogie (hip strain), and centre Jusuf Nurkic (personal reasons). Due to an injury, Beal has only made six appearances this season after being traded by the Washington Wizards in the offseason.

Vogel remarked, “Another tough third quarter.” “We need to step up and execute our offensive more effectively. Right now, we’re not playing good enough.”
