Chandler (shoulder) will not return to Friday's game against Houston, Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

After initially being listed as questionable to return Friday, Chandler will not return to action after suffering a strained right shoulder. His next chance to return will come Sunday against the Spurs, but if he's unavailable it would potentially leave the Suns thin in the front court given that Alex Len (ankle) missed Friday's game. Jon Leuer, Mirza Teletovic, and Kris Humphries would likely absorb most of the minutes up front if Chandler and Len are ultimately unable to go against the Spurs.
