Suns scratch Booker in New Orleans with hamstring tightness
The Phoenix Suns have scratched leading scorer Devin Booker from their game against the New Orleans Pelicans because of tightness in his left hamstringDECEMBER 11, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Sidelined versus Pelicans Booker (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Booker's sore left hamstring will result in him missing his first game of the season and temporarily clouds his status heading into the Suns' upcoming three-game week. Damion Lee, Landry Shamet and Josh Okogie are the primary candidates to pick up minutes on the wing in Booker's stead, though Cameron Payne may also get more run off the ball after his recent stint as the Suns' starting point guard came to an end when Chris Paul recently returned from his extended absence due to a heel injury.

Day-to-day with hamstring tightness Head coach Monty Williams indicated Saturday that Booker is considered day-to-day with left hamstring tightness, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Impact Booker played 36 minutes in Friday's game versus the Pelicans but has struggled with his shot over the last three games, failing to top 20 points in any of them. Perhaps the hamstring issue can explain the shooting woes, and the star guard's status is worth keeping an eye on ahead of the tilt.

In eight-category formats, Booker is the ninth-ranked player in total production.
