Leuer has been ruled out of Friday's matchup with the Wizards due to a right ankle sprain, Paul Coro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Analysis:

Leuer has played in a limited role the past handful of games due to illness but now finds himself on the bench with an ankle sprain, the severity of which is unknown. Look for Mirza Teletovic and Alan Alan Williams to see increased minutes on Friday night. Leuer's next chance to return to the court will come on Sunday against the Jazz, but he could be shut down for the remainder of the season, a total of six games, if his ankle hasn't healed.
