Phoenix Suns rookies Cameron Johnson and Ty Jerome each will not play Wednesday in the regular-season opener against the Sacramento Kings, the team announced Tuesday night.

Johnson is dealing with left calf soreness though it is unclear when he suffered the injury. He appeared in all four preseason games with the Suns, averaging 9.8 points and 3.3 rebounds while shooting 45 percent from three-point range.

Jerome will not play due to a right ankle sprain suffered Monday in practice. In four preseason games, the 24th overall pick averaged 6.8 points, 3.8 assists and one steal while shooting 45.8 percent from the field, including 22.2 percent from beyond the arc.

The two players each did not play with the Suns in Summer League after being involved in separate draft-night trades and will see their official NBA debuts delayed by at least one game.

Johnson appears to have an uphill battle ahead for significant playing time behind Kelly Oubre Jr. and Mikal Bridges on the depth chart. Meanwhile, Jerome figures to be in the running to be the backup point guard once he can return to the court.

The Suns play Wednesday and again Friday against the Denver Nuggets.
