• Suns' Devin Booker: Hits season-high 44 points in loss

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Booker logged 44 points (15-29 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 8-9 FT), seven assists, six rebounds and one block across 40 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 loss to the Timberwolves. After posting a season-low 12 points in Friday's loss to the Thunder, Booker produced a stellar bounce-back game with a new season-high mark in points. The star shooting guard also set a season high in threes made, and he has now hit three or more shots from beyond the arc in seven outings. Through 14 regular-season matchups, Booker has averaged 24.0 points, 6.6 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals across 36.6 minutes per game.

• Suns' Devin Booker: Tepid performance in loss

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Booker posted 12 points (2-10 FG, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 99-83 loss to Oklahoma City. Booker was ice cold out of the gate, missing his first six shots before finally making his first basket midway through the third quarter. Phoenix was already down by double-digits at that point and was unable to close the gap. With Kevin Durant (calf) and Bradley Beal (calf) sidelined, Booker needs to bounce back quickly to maintain a cohesive unit.

• Suns' Devin Booker: Modest outing in loss

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Booker had 18 points (6-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 127-104 loss to the Kings. The Suns are short-handed, and Booker has the task of making up for Kevin Durant (calf) and Bradley Beal's (calf) absence. Although he averaged 27.0 points and 8.0 assists over the first two games without Durant, he fell well short of that total Wednesday evening. Increased production from Booker is critical to Phoenix's success over the next two weeks as Durant works his way back to health.

• Suns' Devin Booker: Double-doubles in loss

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Booker finished Sunday's 127-118 overtime loss to the Kings with 23 points (9-22 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, 12 assists and two steals in 43 minutes. Booker dished out a season-high 12 assists for a second straight game and notched his first 20-point double-double of the season. However, since dropping 40 points on the Clippers on Oct. 31, Booker is shooting just 37.6 percent from the field over his last five appearances. With Kevin Durant (calf) sidelined and Bradley Beal (knee) banged up, the Suns will need Booker at his best over the next couple of weeks.

• Suns' Devin Booker: Struggles with shot Friday

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Booker amassed 13 points (5-13 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and 12 assists over 35 minutes during Friday's 114-113 victory over Dallas. Booker was a game-time call for this contest and was cleared to play less than an hour before the scheduled tipoff, but it was noticeable he wasn't at 100 percent. The 13-point output tied Booker's worst mark of the current campaign, and perhaps worryingly, both games have come across his last three appearances. That said, fantasy managers shouldn't be worried regarding Booker's performance long-term, and he should get back to putting up his regular numbers once he gets past this illness that's affecting him.
