Impact The 27-year-old guard scored more than 20 points for the third straight game to close out the regular season, and the sixth time in eight April contests.

Strong from deep as top scorer Booker recorded 37 points (13-24 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound, four assists, one block and one steal in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 124-108 win over the Clippers.

Impact Booker led all Suns players in threes made and scoring to go along with a quartet of assists while finishing perfect from the free-throw line in a high-scoring victory. Booker has scored 35 or more points in 13 games this season, surpassing the 30-point mark in five of his last 10 outings. He has connected on at least five threes in three of his last six contests.

Suffers ice-cold slump in loss Booker finished Tuesday's 105-92 loss to the Clippers with 12 points (1-11 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 10-11 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 40 minutes.

Impact Booker shot a ghastly 9.1 percent from the floor in the loss, marking one of his worst performances of the season. We've seen cracks in Booker's armor several times over the past month, as his shot has been conspicuously off without much cause. His shot volume has also fluctuated quite a bit, and he's dipped below his seasonal average of 19.3 attempts per game in six of his last 10 contests.

Goes cold from three-point range Booker posted 25 points (9-16 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Sunday's 113-105 loss to New Orleans.

Impact Booker ended with a decent overall stat line and finished just three assists away from recording what would've been his second consecutive double-double. However, he missed all six of his three-point attempts, making it just the second time this season he doesn't hit at least one three when attempting five or more. Booker will aim to bounce back when the Suns host the Clippers on Tuesday.

Drops 13 dimes in victory Booker racked up 13 points (3-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), three rebounds, 13 assists and three steals in 34 minutes during Friday's 97-87 victory over the Timberwolves.

Impact Booker shooting stroke was off-track for most of the game, but he was effective as a ball distributor and got the ball to Jusuf Nurkic and Kevin Durant when it counted. Booker's five points in the first quarter were a critical part of Phoenix's 15-0 start, but he sat for the final four minutes of the game, thus limiting his potential output.

Logs another explosive total Booker notched 40 points (13-25 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 9-9 FT), one rebound, eight assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 122-101 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact Booker followed up his 52-point tour de force against the Pelicans with another excellent total. Wednesday marked just the second time that Booker and Kevin Durant have scored over 30 points together this season, which is an excellent example of the duo's untapped potential. Booker is getting hot at the right time, and they have a good chance of staying out of the play-in bracket if he can keep the production going.
