When was the last time the Phoenix Suns had a transcendent star? Outside of two-time MVP Steve Nash, Devin Booker is seemingly next up in this position following his coming out party on ESPN in the Suns’ season opener.
Wednesday’s game against Dallas was the first competitive action for Booker in just over seven months. And there definitely was no rust, even with a tape job on his ring and pinky fingers following surgery on his fifth metacarpophalangeal joint, as he racked up a line of 35 points, 4 rebounds, and 7 assists like it was nothing.
