Tue Dec 20 202217:35Devin Booker Will Miss Game Against Wizards
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) will miss his second game in a row with groin soreness. He sat out the first half of the team's back-to-back on Monday and he'll take at least one more day to heal up. These missed games come right after he went off for 58 points against the New Orleans Pelicans and helped the Suns win by four. In his absence, they were able to notch a lopsided victory over the Los Angeles Lakers and they'll likely get another win against an average Wizards team. While he's out, two streaming candidates would be Damion Lee and Landry Shamet as they saw added opportunities on Monday.

Mon Dec 19 202215:17Devin Booker Unavailable For Monday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The superstar guard is coming off a 58-point performance on Saturday. The Suns are on the front end of a back-to-back set, so they've decided to give Booker the night off. Landry Shamet should enter the starting lineup and will have decent streaming value. Also, Damion Lee should see more minutes off the bench, which makes him more of an appealing streaming option for Monday's slate.

Sun Dec 18 202207:45Devin Booker Ends Slump With A 58-Point Effort
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Devin Booker scored at will in Saturday's clash with New Orleans, netting a season-high 58 points in a 118-114 win. He became the first Suns player ever to reach 50 points on five occasions, shooting 21-for-35 from the field and 6-for-12 from downtown. This could've easily been even a 60-point performance for Booker, but he had a tough time at the charity stripe with a 10-for-15 effort. Booker added five rebounds and five assists to his line while committing two turnovers in 42 minutes. The explosion came after Booker had scored just 54 points across his previous four outings. Not a bad way to end a slump. He heated up for a nice four-game week, which starts Monday versus the Lakers.

Wed Dec 14 202217:56Devin Booker "Hopes" To Play On Thursday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) is "hopeful" to play on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers after missing his previous two games because of hamstring tightness. The Suns could certainly use him back, especially with Phoenix dropping its last five straight contests. Nonetheless, if Booker can't suit up, Landry Shamet, who had 13 points, four rebounds, and two steals against the Rockets, may continue to start. However, Shamet shot 3-for-11 from deep in that one, so category managers may want to pump to brakes before adding him to the roster.

Wed Dec 14 202217:37Devin Booker Able To Shoot During Wednesday’s Practice
Phoenix Suns point/shooting guard Devin Booker (hamstring) got shots up at Wednesday's practice, a step in the right direction after a two-game absence due to a left hamstring ailment. With Deandre Ayton (ankle) and Cameron Payne (foot) going down during Tuesday's contest, a potential Booker return ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Clippers would give the team needed offensive thump. The MVP candidate scuffled in his three prior games to going down, shooting just 31.9 percent overall and averaging just 14 PPG. Another absence Thursday would funnel a larger role toward Landry Shamet, Mikal Bridges and Damion Lee, among others.

Mon Dec 12 202218:00Devin Booker Will Sit Out On Tuesday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. The Suns have decided to rule out the superstar guard a full 24 hours in advance. This marks the second game in a row that Booker will miss due to left hamstring tightness. His absence should mean more playing time for Damion Lee and Cameron Payne. Between the two, Lee is the much better streaming option considering he dropped 34 points during their last contest.

Sun Dec 11 202214:48Devin Booker Not Available On Sunday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The superstar guard was questionable coming into this game, but it appears the Suns are going to take the cautious approach here. The Suns are going to go with a big lineup here and start Dario Saric in Booker's place. Chris Paul, Mikal Bridges, Torrey Craig, and Deandre Ayton will round out the rest of the starting five. Saric isn't a great streaming option, but Damion Lee might be worth looking at with Booker sidelined.

Sat Dec 10 202223:57Devin Booker Questionable For Rematch With Pelicans
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's rematch with the Pelicans. It appears there's a good chance the 26-year-old won't play in this one because of left hamstring tightness, which wouldn't help the Suns avenge Friday night's loss to New Orleans. That said, someone will have to fill the void if Booker can't suit up, so Landry Shamet or Damion Lee would probably replace him in the starting lineup, with the latter being the preferred fantasy option. However, regardless of who takes Booker's spot in the rotation, Chris Paul and Deandre Ayton should be the biggest beneficiaries on the offensive end by far.

Sat Dec 3 202209:13Devin Booker Remains Red-Hot Versus Houston
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Devin Booker had another superb scoring performance against Houston on Friday, notching 41 points in a 122-121 loss. He nailed half of his eight attempts from deep and shot 15-for-25 overall from the field with a 7-for-10 record at the foul line. Booker was also able to register four rebounds and eight assists while giving up the ball three times in 34 minutes. Something has clicked for Booker lately, as he has averaged 45.3 points per game in his last three outings, shooting at least 60 percent from the field each time. There has been no news of Chris Paul's (heel) potential return, so Booker can enjoy a very large role offensively, and it clearly suits him.

Thu Dec 1 202210:33Devin Booker Becomes Fourth 50-Point Scorer This Season
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker followed up his 44-point outing in the team's last game with a 51-point effort against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday. The 26-year-old superstar shot a crazy 20-for-25 from the floor and only missed one of his seven attempts from beyond the arc. He also added four rebounds, six assists, and one steal. He's already providing value higher than his ADP as he's now ranked 13th and just barely outside of first-round value in a 12-team league. His scoring and efficiency will always be his calling-card across all formats, but he's seen new highs in rebounding in assists as well.

Tue Nov 29 202208:44Devin Booker Drops 44 Points On Sacramento
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker posted his second-highest scoring mark of the season in Monday's win over the Kings, going for 44 points on 17-for-28 shooting. Five of his misses came with six attempts from behind the arc. Booker added eight rebounds, four assists and an incredible six steals to his line with six turnovers in 41 minutes. This was a superb performance from the Suns stars, even though Booker himself noted after the game that he simply did what he gets paid to do. Booker will be out to prove his worth next against the Bulls on Wednesday. Chicago and its rock-solid defense will be a tough challenge for him, but Booker will then find himself in a pair of very favorable matchups against Houston and San Antonio.

Sun Nov 27 202207:53Devin Booker Picks Up Another Double-Double
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker posted a 27-point, 11-rebound double-double in Saturday's 113-112 win over Utah. He had a very tough shooting night, going 8-for-27 from the field, but a 10-for-11 effort at the charity stripe eventually helped him put together a good line. Booker's work also included seven assists. That's now two double-doubles for him in five games, as Booker continues to facilitate a bit more with Chris Paul (heel) absent. He will be in a very good spot to rack up the stats again on Monday versus the Kings, who like to push the pace but whose defensive work leaves a lot to be desired.

Sat Nov 19 202200:44Devin Booker Goes Off On Friday Night
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker exploded on Friday night against the Jazz, finishing with 49 points while adding 10 assists and eight boards. Booker made only 22.2% of his attempts from deep in the loss. However, he made up for it by sinking all 15 free throw tries. The 26-year-old has played well this season and continues to be one of the best scorers in the NBA. He should continue to benefit offensively as long as Chris Paul (heel) remains out of the lineup.

Wed Nov 2 202209:09Devin Booker Struggles With Off Shooting Night
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker came back to Earth again after his run with mostly 30-point games. Even though he was still able to score 18 points on Tuesday, he was only able to shoot 6-for-18 from the floor and 2-for-7 from deep. For fantasy managers in category leagues, he at least added some stats in other areas to make up for it. The 26-year-old added seven rebounds, five assists, and one block. He'll be sure to rectify this shooting with another big game very soon.

Mon Oct 31 202209:07Devin Booker Celebrates Birthday With 30 Points
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker celebrated his 26th birthday with a nice 30-point effort against Houston on Sunday. He led the team to a comfortable 124-109 victory, shooting 14-for-24 from the field and notching three rebounds and six assists with one steal and one turnover in 35 minutes. This was a productive night for Booker, although his shot from deep remained off, and the Suns star has now gone 1-for-11 from downtown in his past two appearances. With six games played, Booker has reached the 30-point plateau four times. He's also been getting a nice amount of assists (5.5), and Sunday should mark the start of a very fruitful stretch from Booker, with Deandre Ayton (ankle) out of action for at least a week.

Wed Oct 26 202210:35Devin Booker Posts Third 30-Point Game In A Row
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker stayed red-hot after finishing with his third 30-point game in a row and third in four games. He could have even had four but finished two points shy in the season opener. In the Suns' 134-105 victory, Booker registered 34 points, two rebounds, seven assists and three steals on 10-for-19 shooting from the floor. Over the first four games this season, he's averaging 32.5 points on 48% shooting from deep and 53% overall. He should be firmly in every lineup moving forward, even if his current production is a little more over the sustainable line.

Mon Oct 24 202208:52Devin Booker Scores 35 Points Versus The Clippers
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker upped his season-best to 35 points on Sunday, leading his side to an easy 112-95 victory over the Clippers. He nailed five three-point bombs with nine attempts and shot 13-for-21 overall from the field. Booker also found time for some playmaking, handing out four assists, and he picked up one rebound and one steal with three turnovers in 35 minutes. The 25-year-old scoring machine has now gone for 30-plus points in back-to-back games and he boasts a 32.0 scoring average for the season. Booker is well warmed up for a meeting with the Warriors Tuesday night. He had a nightmare in the matchup last season, getting only 15 points per game in three meetings.

Thu Oct 20 202210:36Devin Booker Drops 28 Points In Win
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker was red-hot from the floor on Wednesday night. He finished the game with 28 points, nine assists, four rebounds and one block while shooting 10-for-20 overall. His damage came from midrange while attacking the basket all night long, as shown by only taking one three-point attempt. He played a whopping 41 minutes in this game. Surely, fantasy managers aren't complaining as he's in line to lead a lot of fantasy teams to victory as well as the Suns.

Thu Jun 30 202218:27Devin Booker Agrees To Massive Extension
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has agreed to a four-year, $214 million extension with the organization. Last season, Booker averaged career-highs of 26.8 points, 5.0 boards, 4.8 dimes and 1.1 steals. He is a proven superstar and is certainly worth snagging in the first or second round of fantasy drafts. This extension will keep Booker in Phoenix through the 2027-2028 season. However, his fantasy value could change if the Suns are able to lure in Kevin Durant. Regardless, Booker is going to be a stud for years to come and is well-deserving of this extension.

Booker hit 6-of-17 shots and missed all four of his attempts from beyond the arc. He finished with 19 points, eight rebounds, and three assists in the loss. Booker also had eight turnovers during his 39 minutes of action. He'll look to get it together quickly for Sunday's Game 7 matchup.
