So I would expect Suns to start
Cameron Payne
Landry Shamet
Mikal Bridges
Cameron Johnson
JaVale McGee
And I would expect same Clippers starters, but with a second unit of:
Terance Mann
Luke Kennard
Norman Powell
Robert Covington
Isaiah Hartenstein – 3:43 PM

More on this storyline
JD Shaw: The Clippers have upgraded swingman Norman Powell (left foot-fractured medial sesamoid bone) to QUESTIONABLE for tonight’s game against the Suns. Powell has missed 22 straight games. -via Twitter @JShawNBA / April 6, 2022 Andrew Greif: Clippers guard Norman Powell has been *upgraded* to doubtful for Wednesday’s game vs. Phoenix. Powell hasn’t played since fracturing a bone in his foot Feb. 10 but practiced today without limitations. If he plays tomorrow, think he could be eased in off the bench initially. -via Twitter @AndrewGreif / April 5, 2022 Mirjam Swanson: Ty Lue on Norm: “He’ll be able to practice today. He’ll be able to do everything we’re doing today.” (No five on five.) “Hope so,” he can come back this regular season. Though he doesn’t know for sure. -via Twitter @MirjamSwanson / April 5, 2022
