Devin Booker averaged career-high 27.8 points this season, but does it count in the record books?

Every franchise has sacred records that are revered internally. All-time scorer, all-time, rebounder, all-time assist-leader; these metrics reflect greatness and longevity by players who have donned the colors of the team. For the Phoenix Suns, there is one record that has held firm for 23 years.

Tom Chambers set the mark for most points-per-game in a season in the 1989-90 regular season. He scored 27.2 points-per-game that year, surpassing the previous record, held by himself from the 1988-89 season (25.5 points).

This year, Devin Booker broke that scoring average as he ended the 2022-23 regular season with 27.
