Suns' Leandro Barbosa: Listed as doubtful Friday

Barbosa (illness) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Magic.

Analysis:

Barbosa ended up missing the second half of Wednesday's loss to the Kings while dealing with the illness, and based on the Suns' game notes, it appears he may still be feeling under the weather. In the event the Suns grant the veteran the night off, projected backcourt starters Tyler Ulis and Devin Booker could both potentially challenge for 40 minutes, as the team is already without Eric Bledsoe (knee) and could be missing Brandon Knight (back) and Derrick Jones (back). If all three of those injured players remain sidelined along with Barbosa, Ronnie Price and Jared Dudley would represent the only backcourt reserves.
