Ryan Dunn has emerged as a surprising asset for the Suns, showcasing his defensive prowess while also improving his shooting capabilities. Initially viewed as a long-term project due to his offensive struggles at Virginia, Dunn has demonstrated significant growth, including a standout performance in the preseason where he shot 6 for 11 from beyond the arc. His journey from a non-shooter to a contributor reflects his dedication and adaptability, as he now plays a crucial role in guarding the opponent's best perimeter players and making impactful plays.

Ryan Dunn capped a 9-2 run for the Suns with a finger roll layup, helping to extend their lead to 108-99 and contributing to the team's overall offensive momentum.

Ryan Dunn has been sidelined with left ankle soreness, missing the last three games. As the Suns' best perimeter defender, his absence has further weakened the team's defensive capabilities, which have struggled significantly without Durant and Dunn on the floor.

Ryan Dunn was ruled out for the game against the Pelicans due to a sore left ankle, adding to the Suns' injury challenges as they also miss star players Kevin Durant and Jusuf Nurkic.

Ryan Dunn assisted Kevin Durant after he fell to the floor due to the ankle injury, helping him back to his feet. Dunn later took Durant's place in the lineup to start the second half but made only a brief appearance before returning to the locker room.
