Phoenix Suns' Kevin Durant (foot), Grayson Allen (illness) questionable for Raptors game
TORONTO – Kevin Durant is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s game at Toronto to conclude a three-game road trip after missing the last two games with right foot soreness.
Grayson Allen (illness) also is listed as questionable for Wednesday while Nassir Little is ruled out due to personal reasons.
Little went back to Phoenix for the birth of his first child, a baby girl.
The Suns took Monday off after Sunday’s 116-113 thriller over the Knicks at Madison Square Garden and practiced Tuesday in New York before heading to Toronto.

Phoenix is riding a season-high seven-game winning streak, the longest current one in the Western Conference.
Orlando (12-5) also has won its last seven games.
The Suns are 7-0 since Devin Booker’s return after he missed five games with a right calf strain. He hit a game-winning 3 with 1.7 seconds left to stun the Knicks.
Durant had posted five consecutive 30-point games, scoring 32 in Phoenix’s 123-115 victory last week over Golden State in the second of a back-to-back.
He’s second in the NBA in scoring at 31.4 points a game and leading the league in 3-point shooting percentage at 52.2%.
Durant went through a pregame workout before Sunday's win, but didn't play against the Knicks. He also got in work during Tuesday's practice in New York, but Suns coach Frank Vogel said they'll wait to see how he responds to practice to help determine his availability for Wednesday's game.
Allen sat out Sunday due to illness. Vogel said Allen didn't practice Tuesday, but Allen is feeling better and making the trip to Toronto for Wednesday's game. Vogel added he's hopeful Allen will play Wednesday.
As for Little, he's been playing his best basketball since joining the Suns.
Reaching double figures in points in four of his last five games, Little scored 11, hitting 3-of-6 from 3, in Sunday's win.
The Suns have been without Bradley Beal since Nov. 12 when they lost to Oklahoma City in his third game with the team.
Beal didn’t make the three-game road trip as he’s been rehabbing his low-back issues. The Suns announced Nov. 17 that Beal would undergo re-evaluation in three weeks.
