Phoenix Suns’ Devin Booker Becomes the Sixth Player in NBA History to Score 70 or More Points in a Game

Devin Booker can’t legally drink alcohol, and he looks like he’s never used a razor, but that didn’t stop him from making history on Friday night. The Phoenix Suns guard, 20, just became the sixth player in NBA history to score 70 points or more in a game.

The other five players are Wilt Chamberlain (who did it a staggering six times), David Robinson, Elgin Baylor, David Thompson, and Kobe Bryant.

Booker scored 70 points on the road against the Boston Celtics in a 130-120 loss. Some highlights from his night are the 24 makes out of his 26 free throw attempts and the 51 second half points.
