P.J. Tucker: Expects to play limited minutes Wednesday

Tucker missed the entire preseason schedule while working back from a back injury that required surgery in September. With it being his first game back, the Suns are likely slated to keep his minutes down, as Tucker could need some work on his conditioning, while they also want to avoid any sort of aggravation by giving him too much of a workload too soon. T.J. Warren is expected to draw the start at small forward Wednesday, but Tucker could very well be elevated into a starting role once he’s had a chance to get extended work as the season moves forward.
