Igor Kokoskov knows he’s asking a lot from Devin Booker.

Score. Facilitate. Defend. Lead.

He’s put up at least 25 points and eight assists in six consecutive games to join Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Russell Westbrook and James Harden as the only players to achieve that feat since 1983-84, according to Basketball Reference.
