Already losing Jusuf Nurkiu0107 to neck spasms moments after the second half began, the Phoenix Suns lost another star due to injury.
With 3:27 left on the clock in the fourth quarter against the Houston Rockets, guard Devin Booker left after apparently suffering an ankle injury.
As he was defending Rockets guard Fred VanVleet, Booker moved to his right, stepped onto Royce O’Neale’s foot by accident and rolled his ankle. Holding his ankle for about a minute, Booker would then hobble to Phoenix’s locker room and did not return.
