He's hurt. This has been the case for the last 2 games. It's not coach chaining him to the bench.

I think a few of us believe he had a small stroke. None of us have any evidence to back that up though.
Go Suns!

Ok, i thought it was a minor tweak and he'd be back shortly. Was it a high sprain?

That's very scary. Whatever it was, I'm glad he's playing similar to the Warren of old.

Watson will hold him out for the rest of the season as a precautionary measure. :lol:

Well. It was entertaining for 45 minutes! Got my moneys worth.

Well done Suns! Great rebounding. Chandler with the board and the intercepted outlet pass.

He's 23. That would be very rare. Not impossible but rare unless he has an underlying clotting disorder. In which case he would have to be on blood thinners and wouldn't be playing.

I have a feeling Warren has some kind of Mental Illness. Maybe Bi-polar. I'm just going off the tone of his tweet when he came back. Regardless, whatever it was, glad he's doing better.

Great game by the team, the refs called this quite lopsided. And we're not good enough to overcome that crap yet.

But who cares, they're playing well, which makes it fun to watch, plus we're not sacrificing our draft odds.

Well it's inevitable we are about to see Ronnie Price, and probably lots of him as we appear to be activating operation: mid lottery.

I will say i thoroughly enjoy watching him steal the ball from the opposing PG trying to bring the ball up. He is absolutely unwatchable on offense.

Bender has been suffering from an ankle injury.
