Booker recorded 22 points (8-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 28 minutes in Thursday's 128-122 loss to the Lakers.
Booker's ankle showed no ill effects in Phoenix's final preseason game as the starting five received max minutes. The offense should improve somewhat under Mike Budenholzer's direction, with Booker showcased as the primary backcourt option.
