Barbosa (shoulder) will not play Wednesday but hopes to return Friday, the Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

Barbosa is dealing with a sore right shoulder, which caused him to leave Monday's game after scoring 21 points on 8-of-15 shooting. He underwent a precautionary X-ray earlier this week and results were negative, so consider him a game-time call for Friday's contest against Dallas.
