Suns’ Green (hamstring) out at least 4-6 weeks
Phoenix Suns guard Jalen Green will be reevaluated in four to six weeks for a right hamstring strain, the team announced Tuesday.
Green sustained the injury during Saturday’s road win over the LA Clippers.
Green has dealt with a right hamstring injury since before the season, first injuring it during training camp and then aggravating it while the team was in China during the preseason. Green missed the Suns’ first eight games before making his Phoenix debut in Thursday’s win over the Clippers. He had 29 points in that game, the most by a Suns player in his debut for the franchise since Charles Barkley in 1992.
The Suns acquired Green from the Rockets in a blockbuster deal that sent Kevin Durant to Houston.
Green played all 82 games in each of the past two seasons.
NEW YORK — Labaron Philon Jr. scored 25 points as No. 15 Alabama passed an early-season nonconference test with a 103-96 victory over fifth-ranked St. John’s on Saturday afternoon.
Philon helped Alabama clinch the win with a deep 3-pointer for a 98-88 lead with two minutes remaining. He shot 10-of-17 from the field in his second straight strong performance as Alabama took control late in the first half, withstood a comeback and executed in the final minutes.
Aden Holloway added 21 points after sitting out the season opener with a wrist injury as the Crimson Tide (2-0) shot 48.1%. Taylor Bol Bowen and Latrell Wrightsell contributed 17 points each for Alabama, which impressively started a run of four straight games against ranked teams. The Crimson Tide will face top-ranked Purdue, Illinois and Gonzaga after Saturday.
Holloway and Wrightsell were a combined 15-of-31 from the floor and hit six of Alabama’s 11 3-pointers in the Crimson Tide’s first appearance at Madison Square Garden since 2013-14.
Zuby Ejiofor scored 27 points for the Red Storm (1-1), who had a 12-game winning streak at MSG stopped. Bryce Hopkins added 19 and Ian Jackson finished with 14 as St. John’s shot 49.2% but missed 12 free throws.
Alabama ended the first half by outscoring St. John’s 16-6 and took a 53-44 halftime lead on a 3 by Holloway at the buzzer. The Crimson Tide held a 10-point lead early in the second before St. John’s stormed back, getting an 81-80 lead on a 3-pointer by Joson Sanon with 8:13 left.
Alabama hosts Purdue on Thursday, while St. John’s hosts William & Mary next Saturday night.
The Washington Capitals are extremely familiar with the Carolina Hurricanes — and their in-your-face, high-pressure style of play.

The Dallas Mavericks dismissed general manager Nico Harrison on Tuesday, thanks largely to a vocal fan base that couldn’t forgive him for dealing Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers.
