Today on KSR: Devin Booker’s title dreams come to a close (for now)

Despite holding a 2-0 lead to open the NBA Finals, former Kentucky standout Devin Booker will not earn his first championship ring this time around, as the Milwaukee Bucks cruised back to win four consecutive matchups to take home the 2021 title on Tuesday.

Booker finished with 19 points in the Game 6 loss, shooting 8-22 from the field and 0-7 from three in a team-high 46 minutes. He also added five assists and three rebounds, but ended the game with six turnovers. It was just the sixth time this postseason the former UK guard failed to break the 20-point mark and second instance during the Finals.
