Tyson Chandler (back spasms) out Tuesday for Suns

Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (back spasms) will not play in Tuesday's preseason game against the Houston Rockets.

What It Means:

The injury doesn't appear to be serious for Chandler, and he should be set for the beginning of the regular season.

Chandler is coming off of a monster campaign with the Dallas Mavericks, and our projections love him for 2015-16. He enters the season ranked sixth in nERD at 10.6 after a season in which he led the league in Offensive Rating at 133. The computers see him following that up this year by averaging 10.18 points and 10.08 rebounds per game.
