The Suns star duo became the first Suns’ teammates since 2006 to win back-to-back Western Conference Player of the Week awards after Booker earned the award Monday, one week after Durant won the honor. Steve Nash and Shawn Marion accomplished this feat 18 years ago.

Booker and Durant have led the Suns to a 27-20 record so far this season, good for sixth in the Western Conference.
Booker is averaging 28.4 points on 50.1% shooting, 7.3 assists and 4.9 rebounds in 38 games played this season.
Durant is averaging 28.3 points on 53.1% shooting, 6.4 rebounds and 5.7 assists across 40 contests.

The Suns next play tomorrow night against Durant’s former team, the Brooklyn Nets, as KD awaits how fans will receive him back in Brooklyn.
