Highsmith (knee) will play Thursday against the Pacers, Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix reports.

EDGE Analysis

Highsmith was initially added to the team's injury report due to right knee injury management, but he's since received clearance to suit up for Thursday's action. The 29-year-old has logged 21 and 13 minutes in his first two games of the season and could see a slight uptick in chances against Indiana with Grayson Allen (knee) downgraded to out.

Highsmith is questionable to play Thursday in Indiana due to right knee injury management, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Highsmith recently returned from a lengthy absence, so the medical staff may play it safe and hold him out of Thursday's game, which will be the first of a back-to-back set. If Highsmith hits the sidelines, there would be more minutes available for Amir Coffey and Ryan Dunn.

Highsmith finished Sunday's 111-99 victory over the Hornets with three points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 21 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

With Grayson Allen (knee) joining Jordan Goodwin (calf), Mark Williams (foot) and Dillon Brooks (hand) on the sideline Sunday, Highsmith was able to crack the Phoenix rotation for what was his season debut. After completing his recovery from August surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee, Highsmith was cleared to play at the beginning of the month, but he went unused in coach's decisions in the Suns' previous three contests. Assuming Allen is available for the Suns' next game Tuesday in Milwaukee, Highsmith could find himself back outside of the rotation. Even if Highsmith maintains a regular spot on the second unit, his low usage rate will effectively keep him off the fantasy radar.

Highsmith (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Highsmith will be available to make his season debut after finishing up his rehab. It remains to be seen how involved the 29-year-old will be in the Phoenix rotation, though he figures to be deployed off the bench to provide minutes behind the likes of Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neale.

Highsmith (knee) will be re-evaluated in two to three weeks, Shane Young of the Suns' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Highsmith has yet to make his season debut after undergoing right knee surgery in August to repair a torn meniscus. He was traded from Miami to Brooklyn shortly thereafter but was ultimately waived by the Nets on Feb. 5. While he signed a multi-year deal with the Suns on Feb. 14 and has reportedly been taking part in 5-on-5 drills, the team won't rush him back. It appears he'll return to action by early-to-mid-March at the very earliest.

Highsmith (knee) is out for Thursday's game against the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

After being cut loose by the Nets earlier this month, Highsmith quickly agreed to a two-year deal with the Suns upon clearing waivers. However, despite progressing to taking part in 5-on-5 on-court drills prior to being waived, Highsmith needs more time to get back to 100 percent health coming off of August surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee. According to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM, Highsmith is still "weeks away" from making his Suns debut, with the team's decision to sign him being more of a move for 2026-27 rather than this season.

Highsmith agreed to a multi-year deal with the Suns on Saturday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Highsmith underwent surgery to repair a meniscal tear in his right knee in August and was traded from Miami to Brooklyn shortly thereafter. While he never saw the court for the Nets before being waived Feb. 5, the 29-year-old forward is considered healthy and was taking part in 5-on-5 drills before being let go, per Michael Scotto of USA Today. In the 2024-25 campaign with the Heat, Highsmith averaged 6.5 points and 3.4 rebounds across 24.6 minutes per game in 74 regular-season appearances (42 starts). His first chance to make his Suns debut will come Thursday against the Spurs.

Highsmith underwent surgery in August to repair a meniscal tear in his right knee and was traded from Miami to Brooklyn shortly thereafter. However, the 29-year-old forward never saw the court for Brooklyn, who opted to waive him in order to clear room on the roster for one of its trade-deadline additions. Per Michael Scotto of USA Today, Highsmith is considered healthy and was taking part in 5-on-5 drills with the goal of making his season debut Feb. 11 before Brooklyn cut him. Scotto adds that Highsmith is expected to draw ample interest from contending clubs once he officially clears waivers.
