The Phoenix Suns (26-17) are going for a third straight win as they take on the Philadelphia 76ers (23-18) on the second night of a back-to-back.

Suns injury report: Jalen Green returns, Mark Williams listed as questionable vs 76ers

Phoenix has one of the shortest injury reports they have had this season for Tuesday's matchup against the 76ers.

According to the NBA's latest injury report, Jalen Green didn't appear on the list of injured players for the Suns. He will make his return after missing the past 33 games after re-aggravating his hamstring on Nov. 8.

This will be just the third game Green has played in for the Suns after being traded from the Houston Rockets over the summer.

Mark Williams (knee injury management) is listed as questionable, and Jordan Goodwin (jaw sprain) will be available for Phoenix on Tuesday against the 76ers.

For Philadelphia, Joel Embiid (injury management) is out, Paul George (injury management) is questionable, and Kelly Oubre Jr. (Knee) will be available.

Phoenix is trending in the right direction, currently behind the Los Angeles Lakers (25-16) for the final spot in the Western Conference playoffs. 

Meanwhile, the 76ers are the No. 5 seed in the East despite having fewer wins than the Phoenix Suns so far this season.
