Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker will not play in Monday night's contest versus the Los Angeles Clippers due to a toe sprain, according to Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic.
Brandon Knight will start in his place.
The injury appeared to affect his performance in Sunday night's contest versus the Golden State Warriors, as the 20-year-old finished with just seven points on 3-of-12 shooting.
Booker is coming off of a strong rookie season, averaging 13.8 points and 2.6 assists on 42.3 percent shooting in 76 games.
Phoenix (0-3) is looking for its first win of the season.
