2019-20 Phoenix Suns Must-See Matchups

OPPONENT: Houston Rockets

DATE: December 21, 2019 & February 7, 2020

KEY MATCHUP: Devin Booker vs James Harden

BREAKDOWN: Over the last few seasons, Devin Booker has received comparisons to James Harden due to his elite scoring ability and the potential to create for others. That playmaking was on display during the 2018-19 season as Booker averaged a career-high 6.8 assists per game. He joined Harden and LeBron James as the only three players in the league to average at least 26 points and 6 assists. While both the Suns and Rockets have made key changes to their roster, the two elite offensive weapons remain consistent.
