The Phoenix Suns will look to extend their four-game winning streak when they take on the LA Clippers on Wednesday. The Suns are starting to get healthier every game during their ongoing six-game homestand. Let's look at the latest Phoenix Suns injury report for Jan. 3.
Kevin Durant and Damion Lee are listed as out. Durant is still dealing with a sore right hamstring and will miss his second straight game. He was absent in Phoenix's 109-88 win over the Portland Trail Blazers.
Lee remains without a timetable for a return after undergoing offseason knee surgery. Nassir Litle is also on the injury report but has been tagged as available after missing the last three contests with an orbital fracture. Little is expected to wear a mask to protect his face from further injuries.

The Suns will have an almost healthy roster against the Clippers. Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, who had their fair share of injuries earlier this season, are looking to continue building some momentum.
Phoenix has slowly come back up in the Western Conference standings after struggling in early December. They have won four straight games, against the Houston Rockets, Charlotte Hornets, Orlando Magic and Portland Trail Blazers.
The Clippers will be a real test, considering the Hornets and Blazers are two of the worst teams in the league. The Rockets have improved but are a game below the Suns in the standings. The Magic are one of the surprise teams this season and have struggled during their ongoing road trip.
