Early exit in San Antonio

Luke Kennard left Wednesday night's preseason rematch with the Spurs early with an apparent left knee injury.

Non-contact injury

The injury was non-contact. The Suns had not given an update on his status as of late Wednesday.

A thin Phoenix lineup

Booker, Jalen Green, Bridges, Dillon Brooks, Gillespie and Ighodaro were all held out, and Mark Williams remains out with a left shoulder injury.

A preseason standout

The 29-year-old, signed to a two-year deal, scored a game-high 20 with four threes in Saturday's 102-98 win over the Spurs.

What comes next

Phoenix closes its preseason Friday at home against Utah, with a Kennard update expected before the opener next week.
