• Suns' Devin Booker: Reaches max deal with Phoenix

  07/08/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Booker finalized a five-year, $158 million max contract extension with the Suns on Saturday, Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports reports. Reports surfaced earlier in the week that the Suns and the 21-year-old were working toward a long-term pact, and it didn't take long before the details were formally worked out. Since entering the NBA in 2015, Booker has emerged as one of the elite shooting guards in the league, despite lacking the luxury of playing alongside premier playmakers. During his third NBA campaign in 2017-18, Booker averaged 24.9 points, 4.7 assists and 4.5 rebounds while shooting 38.3 percent from three-point range.

• Suns' Devin Booker: Progressing towards max extension

  07/03/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Booker and the Suns are nearing an agreement on a five-year, $158 million max contract extension, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. There was reportedly some recent tension when Booker's close friend Tyler Ulis was released by the organization, but it appears the two sides were still able to work things out and an agreement could be finalized as soon as this upcoming weekend. Over his first three years in the league, Booker has quickly established himself as an elite offensive talent and is coming off a 2017-18 campaign where he averaged 24.9 points, while shooting 43.2 percent from the field and 38.3 percent from deep. Whether the deal ultimately gets completed or not, Booker should be the go-to option again this season for the Suns.

• Suns' Devin Booker: Ruled out for finale

  04/10/2018 • By RotoWire Staff

  Booker (hand) will not play during Tuesday's season finale against the Mavericks, Scott Bordow of The Arizona Republic reports. Booker has missed the past 11 games due to a hand injury, and there's little incentive to rush him back for an essentially meaningless game at the end of the season. He'll finish his third year in the league averaging 24.9 points on 43.2 percent from the field and 38.3 percent from deep, 4.7 assists and 4.5 rebounds across 34.5 minutes.
