Knight will sit out Wednesday's preseason matchup against the Jazz due to right knee tendinitis.

EDGE Analysis

Knight is expected to act as the team's sixth man off the bench to start the season, with Eric Bledsoe and Devin Booker running as the starters in the backcourt. However, he's dealing with tendinitis in his knee and will sit out Wednesday. Tendinitis is always concerning for any player due to its tendency to linger, although for now, he doesn't appear to be in danger of missing extended time. He'll get the night off for further rest and recovery, but could be available as soon as Friday's game against the Mavericks.
