Bradley Beal will be unable to play for at least 3 weeks as a lower back strain continues to delay the beginning of his tenure with the Phoenix Suns.

The NBA franchise announced that the shooting guard will be reevaluated in 21 days.
Bradley missed the organization’s 1st 7 matches with his lower back strain, then returned on November 8th for the 1st 3 consecutive matches before missing Wednesday’s victory against Timberwolves.
A 3-time All-Star, Beal is averaging almost 18 points, more than 5 boards, and almost 4 assists in 3 matches, all starts.
Suns acquired the guard in a trade with the Washington Wizards, and Beal was expected to form a high-powered big 3, but injuries stopped that to happen at the moment.
Devin Booker has also appeared in just 3 of the Phoenix’s 11 matches because of ankle and calf problems but has not played together with Beal yet.
