PHOENIX – The strong bond between Devin Booker and Kevin Durant has been well-documented. Since Durant arrived with the Phoenix Suns in 2023, the pair have consistently praised each other for their talent on the court and the relationship has only grown stronger off the court. The breakup between the Suns and Durant was a tough pill for fans and Booker to swallow. So, it should be no surprised only a few weeks after the Durant trade to the Houston Rockets, the duo would reappear together in public at Drake’s set at Wireless Festival.
