Booker logged 28 points (10-15 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 13 assists, two rebounds and a steal in 34 minutes during Sunday's 130-118 win over the Spurs.
Booker was the game's leading scorer Sunday, putting up 28 points on impressive efficiency. Aside from his scoring, Booker also did well as a facilitator, racking up a season-high assists total. The 29-year-old pro has thrived as the clear top option to start the season, averaging 32.2 points, 8.4 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 38.0 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Suns' Devin Booker: Game-high 36 points in win
Rotowire
Booker registered 36 points (13-23 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine assists, five rebounds and one block over 39 minutes during the Suns' 118-96 win over the Jazz on Friday.
Booker made his presence felt early with 12 points in the first quarter to help the Suns jump out to a 20-point lead, and he matched that total in the third frame to maintain Phoenix's cushion. Booker has scored at least 31 points in five of the first six games of the regular season while dishing out at least seven dimes in four of those contests. Booker has been the Suns' clear focal point on offense following the offseason trade of Kevin Durant to the Rockets, and the former should continue to see a high usage for as long as Jalen Green (hamstring) is sidelined.

Suns' Devin Booker: Struggles with shot in loss
Rotowire
Booker produced 32 points (10-26 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 8-9 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 114-113 loss to the Grizzlies.
Although Booker led the team in scoring, he converted only 38.4 percent of his shots and relied on frequent trips to the charity stripe to bolster his totals. Booker's shot volume is immense, and he usually finds his way to a solid total due to his massive usage. The Suns should reach full potency once Booker shares the backcourt with Jalen Green (hamstring), who is close to making his debut.

Suns' Devin Booker: Posts 30-point double-double
Rotowire
Booker poured in 34 points (11-26 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 7-10 FT), 11 assists, five rebounds and one block over 44 minutes in Monday's 138-134 overtime loss to the Jazz.
Booker delivered his first double-double of the season in impressive fashion during a thrilling overtime loss that dropped the Suns to 1-3. The star guard has topped 30 points in three of four games and continues to shoulder the scoring load for a Phoenix team lacking secondary firepower, especially with Jalen Green (hamstring) yet to suit up this season. While team success may be tough to come by, Booker's start to the season has been electric and he looks poised for a massive 2025-26 campaign.

Suns' Devin Booker: Pours in game-high 31 in loss
Rotowire
Booker amassed 31 points (10-16 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 9-9 FT), three rebounds and seven assists in 37 minutes during Saturday's 133-111 loss to the Nuggets.
It's the second time in three games to begin the season that Booker has dropped 31 points. The 28-year-old guard is seeing sky-high usage in the early going on a Suns roster that got stripped of established offensive talent in the offseason, and much of his production so far has come at the charity stripe -- Booker's averaging 10.3 free-throw attempts, a huge bump from the 6.4 he averaged in 2024-25.

Suns' Devin Booker: Held in check by Clippers
Rotowire
Booker notched 18 points (5-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-7 FT), three rebounds and seven assists in 28 minutes during Friday's 129-102 loss to the Clippers.
Although Booker had an accurate night, his shot volume was way down in the blowout loss. The Clippers keyed in on him and played smothering defense, hassling Booker for the duration. Neutralizing Booker is a great way to shut down Phoenix's offense, and it worked flawlessly Friday night. More output from Booker's supporting cast will be necessary to keep nights like this from happening.

Suns' Devin Booker: Leads late rally for the win
Rotowire
Booker logged 31 points (10-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 10-15 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 120-116 win over the Kings.
Booker was off the court when the Suns began to eat away at Sacramento's double-digit lead, but his seven points in the fourth quarter helped to seal the deal against the Kings, who led by 17 points in the half. Thanks to Booker, the Suns got off to a great start despite the absence of Jalen Green (hamstring), who will miss at least one more game, and possibly more.

Suns' Devin Booker: Ready to play Wednesday
Rotowire
Booker (rest) will be available for Wednesday's season opener against Sacramento, Kellan Olson of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Booker missed the end of the preseason for rest purposes, but he's ready to roll for Opening Night. The superstar guard averaged 25.6 points, 7.1 assists and 4.1 rebounds per contest in 75 regular-season games in 2024-25, and he should have even more ball-handling duties in the absence of Jalen Green (hamstring).

Suns' Devin Booker: Leading scorer in preseason loss
Rotowire
Booker contributed 18 points (4-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, five assists and a steal in 26 minutes during Sunday's 111-109 preseason loss to the Nets in Macao.
The star guard led all scorers in the contest while also leading Phoenix in assists and tying for the team lead in boards and threes. With Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal (knee) no longer on the roster, Booker is back to being a one-man show in the Suns' offense, but it's his ability to stay healthy that will likely determine whether the 28-year-old can turn that opportunity into career-best production.
Suns' Devin Booker: Nets 24 points with seven dimes
Rotowire
Booker (calf) recorded 24 points (8-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), seven assists, two rebounds, one block and just one turnover across 25 minutes in Friday's 103-81 preseason win over the Lakers.
Booker was very aggressive on offense, and he did a nice job of finding his teammates for open looks when the Lakers brought pressure. His calf didn't seem to bother him at all, and he'll now have a whole week to rest up ahead of Phoenix's next preseason game in China.

Suns' Devin Booker: Will play Friday
Rotowire
Booker (calf) is good to go for Friday's preseason matchup with the Lakers, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Booker will likely be eased back into things with a minimal workload Friday evening, which should translate to more burn for guys like Jared Butler and Collin Gillespie. The fact that Booker is suiting up for a meaningless preseason game suggests that the calf issue he's dealing with is quite minor.

Suns' Devin Booker: Expected to suit up Friday
Rotowire
Booker is expected to play in Friday's preseason opener against the Lakers, Mark Medina of TheSportingTribune.com reports.
Booker isn't dealing with an injury, but the Suns are keeping an eye on his workload ahead of the regular season. If the superstar guard is limited in any capacity Friday, Jared Butler and Collin Gillespie would have a clearer pathway to playing time in the Phoenix backcourt.
