Well this wasn’t the Kevin Durant night we all hoped for, but fellow All-Star and homegrown all-timer Devin Booker put on a show for Phoenix Suns fans anyway in a Suns blowout victory.
Durant was a late scratch after rolling an ankle in pregame warmups. So Booker decided to make the night his own, scoring 44 points in just 27 minutes and leaving the Suns with a 36-point lead midway through the 4th quarter.
Booker is now the only player in Suns history with four consecutive 35+ point games. With all the rich scoring history in the Suns franchise, including Book’s 8 years, no one’s done that before.
