Devin Booker has worst shooting night of postseason in masked effort

Phoenix Suns starting shooting guard Devin Booker had his worst shooting night of the postseason in his team’s 106-92 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals on Thursday night in Los Angeles, scoring 15 points on 5-of-21 (23.8 percent) from the field along with five rebounds and five assists.

Booker, who suffered a broken nose after colliding with Clippers backup guard Patrick Beverley in Game 2 on Tuesday, wore a face mask in Game 3, something he said he called former Detroit Pistons guard Richard Hamilton for advice on. Despite re-adjusting the mask several times throughout the game, Booker said his nose did not affect his shooting.
