Devin Booker News, Rumors, Updates - Phoenix Suns

Puts up 33 points Monday Booker posted 33 points (11-23 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Monday's 109-105 victory over the Lakers.

Impact Booker was coming off his worst shooing performance of the season Saturday in the win over the Mavericks. However, the star guard bounced back admirably here and responded with his best scoring output of the campaign. Booker has struggled with consistency in his shot, but he's reached the 20-point mark in his last three outings. An uptick in the efficiency would boost his fantasy value even more, though it's already quite high as one of the Suns' top scoring alternatives.

Poor shooting display Saturday Booker supplied 21 points (4-12 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 11-12 FT), one rebound, five assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Saturday's 114-102 win over Dallas.

Impact Booker ended with a decent stat line all things considered, but the shooting woes can't be overlooked. The star guard gained nearly half of his points from the charity stripe. but that approach isn't sustainable on a long-term basis. Booker has scored over 20 points in his last two contests, and there's a strong chance this was nothing more than an off night for one of the most talented pure scorers in The Association. Booker will try to bounce back against the Lakers on Monday.

Pops for 23 against Lakers Booker closed with 23 points (9-21 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Friday's 123-116 loss to the Lakers.

Impact He led the Suns in three-pointers on the night as the team shot 45.9 percent (17-for-37) from beyond the arc. Booker has been locked in from long distance to begin the campaign, draining eight of 15 three-point attempts through the first two games, but that's unlikely to last -- the 27-year-old guard has never shot better than 38.3 percent from three-point range over a full season.

Impact Even with the addition of a "true point guard" in Tyus Jones, Booker was still able to rack up six assists during Wednesday's victory. While Booker is still an elite volume scorer, he likely won't be relied on to go for nearly 30 points a night when Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal are both healthy.

Out with ankle problem Booker is not in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the Pistons due to right ankle soreness, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact The Suns are not concerned about Booker's ankle injury, but they're being extremely cautious with it, so he won't be featuring here. The goal for Booker is to be healthy and available for the Oct. 23 regular-season opener against the Clippers, so it's uncertain if Booker will play in the rest of the preseason.

Struggles with shot Tuesday Booker scored 10 points (4-13 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding three assists, a rebound and a block in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 105-97 preseason win over the Pistons

Impact It was a rough shooting night for Booker, but with the regular season still two weeks away, the four-time All-Star has plenty of time to find his form. He's averaged better than 25 points in six straight seasons, and with Tyus Jones solidifying the point guard position for the Suns, Booker should be able to better focus on his scoring duties rather than taking on more of a distribution role. That also likely means he won't be able to repeat the career-high 6.9 assists per game he delivered in 2023-24, however.
