Duane Rankin of azcentral reported on Saturday, saying that Devin Booker will be re-evaluated in one week after experiencing hip soreness.

This is the second significant injury Booker has sustained this season. He missed seven straight games in late January and early February due to a sprained ankle.

Haywood Highsmith "will continue his rehabilitation following right knee surgery last offseason," the insider added. He will be re-evaluated in two-to-three weeks.

The 29-year-old signed a multiyear deal with the Suns after getting waived by the Brooklyn Nets on Feb. 5. He hasn't appeared in a game since April while he was a part of the Miami Heat's organization. 

As for the Suns, they will be short-handed moving forward, but will get Dillon Brooks back on Thursday after he served a one-game suspension for picking up his 16th technical foul of the season.
