The Phoenix Suns are eyeing their season opener on October 22 against the Kings for Mark Williams’ return from a foot injury. Williams missed the preseason games as Phoenix prioritizes his readiness for the regular season. In his absence, Oso Ighodaro has been starting, with Nick Richards and Khaman Maluach providing depth off the bench. The Suns’ medical team hopes to have Williams back to bolster their frontcourt as the season kicks off.
