Craig injured his right knee during Thursday night's Game 2, and Williams said the 30-year-old passed all the medical examinations.

"All of that came back clean, but he's still sore," Williams said during Saturday's media session. "So I can't make much of a statement on his availability or anything like that. We're going to get through today. We'll have a light practice today and put him through some paces. We'll be able to make a better statement about his availability tomorrow, and then we'll adjust accordingly."

The Suns lead the series 2-0 after winning home games by scores of 118-105 and 118-108.

Craig was injured in the final seconds of the third quarter after colliding with Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Williams said Cam Johnson and Abdel Nader could receive more playing time if Craig is unable to play.

Craig averaged 7.2 points and 4.8 rebounds in 32 games (eight starts) after being acquired from Milwaukee in mid-March. In the postseason, he is averaging 4.3 points and 3.2 rebounds in 18 games, going 14-for-31 (45 percent) from 3-point range.

Phoenix also lost forward Dario Saric in Game 1 due to a ACL tear in his right knee.
