Goran Dragic and the Phoenix Suns hope to carry the momentum of Monday night's win over the Nuggets into Wednesday's battle with the Bulls.

The Phoenix Suns will try to grab their second consecutive win when they play host to the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night at US Airways Arena.

Phoenix (4-4) is coming off a 110-100 win over the Denver Nuggets on Monday night. Goran Dragic led the way for the Suns with 21 points, four rebounds and seven assists, Shannon Brown added 19 points, Michael Beasley 16 and Jared Dudley 15 for Phoenix.

The Bulls (4-3) will try to bounce back from a 101-95 loss to the Boston Celtics on Monday. Luol Deng led all scorers with 26 points and added 11 rebounds. Chicago could be without veteran point guard Kirk Hinrich, who is day-to-day with a strained right hip that he suffered in Saturday's win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Hinrich sat out the team's loss on Monday, and if he is unable to play on Wednesday night, it's likely that Nate Robinson would get his second consecutive start at point guard.

Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. MT and the game will be televised on Fox Sports Arizona.
