Without Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal available for the Suns final pool play matchup in the NBA In-Season Tournament, a big game from Devin Booker was desperately needed.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!And, of course, D-Book delivered.
Booker was the only player on the Suns that scored over 20 points, as he scored a season high 41.
This includes 10 points in the 4th quarter. Which, may typically not mean much, however, given the fact that in order to move on to the knockout round as a Wild Card team, the Suns were relying on gaining a point-differential advantage over the other 3-1 teams also fighting for a spot.
Booker also scored these 41 points in an incredibly effecient matter, needing only 21 shots to do so.
While on the court, the Suns outscored the Grizzles by 28 points.

Devin Booker is 15-1 in his last 16 regular season games played.
In other words, one of the most impactful players in the world.

Doesn’t matter who’s out there, doesn’t matter who they’re playing, you can always count on one thing:

Devin Booker just scored 40 points on 80.1% true shooting to give the Suns another win.
It's his 6th time with that elite combination of 40+ points on 80% TS.
He joins this group of players to do it at least six times: pic.twitter.com/l39ehNKRlf

It’s a crime that Jaylen Brown was ever compared to Devin Booker

It's not rocket science, It's simply basketball 🏀 and Devin Booker is really good at basketball! The Phoenix Suns are now 6-0 since his return from injury, have won 3 straight in season tournament games, are a +34 in differential, and will likely make the knockout round! 👇🤷🏁 https://t.co/SlsEAHYgpw
