The Arizona Republic reports that Suns forward Tom Gugliotta's return to the active roster has been delayed by pain in his right foot.

According to team physicians, Gugliotta suffered a stress reaction in the foot after he practiced Monday for the first time since he was placed on the injured list three weeks ago with tendinitis in his left quadriceps muscle.

Gugliotta, who had hoped to return Thursday at Portland, has suffered repeated setbacks since he suffered a serious injury to his left knee in March 2000.
