Tyreke Evans aiming for a return Wednesday against Phoenix Suns

Fresh off a victory against the Phoenix Suns head coach Alvin Gentry came with gifts following Monday's practice session. Tyreke Evans, who has yet to play a game this season, could return to action Wednesday night in the rematch at Phoenix.

Evans, who averaged 16.6 points, 6.6 assists, and 5.3 rebounds a game last season was considered the second best player on the roster coming into the season. #NBARank put Evans just narrowly ahead of Jrue Holiday in October before Tyreke had his second knee surgery of the off-season.
