Devin Booker and his teammates wanted to go for 60 points

Devin Booker had another wild performance in Utah Monday night where he put up 59 points. He scored in a variety of ways shooting 19-34 from the field, 5-8 from downtown and 16-17 from the free throw line.

The decision to keep him in the game during a blowout was a collective decision by Suns coach Igor Kokoskov, the rest of his coaching staff and everyone on the team including Jamal Crawford.

“He was like get back in there,” Booker said of Crawford telling him to stay in the game.
