Suns' John Jenkins: Returns to practice Monday

Jenkins (abdomen) participated in Monday's scrimmage, Paul Coro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

Jenkins sat out the Suns' last two preseason games while nursing an abdomen injury, but his availability for practice suggests he's now back to full strength. He should be available for Friday's preseason finale versus the Lakers and may need a strong showing, as he's battling Derrick Jones for the Suns' 15th roster spot.
