Devin Booker is the Phoenix Suns’ newest million-dollar man – and by million, I mean $158 million. By the time Booker turns 28 and is ready for his next contract, he’ll have already earned just under $170 million.
God bless him. If he can get it, take it.
That said, the Phoenix Suns offered him a max contract for two reasons: what he has done individually so far, and what is expected of him to do for the franchise in the future.
However, will he be worth it in the end?
If you search for tweets about Devin Booker, even before news of his max extension was made public, you’d find a great number of opinions on either side of the topic – whether he is deserving a max or not.
