Is Devin Booker part of the problem in Phoenix? Absolutely, but he’s also a star with a winning future

Fans and observers alike are up in arms over how much better Devin Booker should be at making the Phoenix Suns a better basketball product.

If the 26-point, six-assist Booker truly is a superstar, then how can the Suns be so so bad at basketball?

Booker is currently one of only 11 players in NBA history to post 26/6 stat line with a true shooting percentage of 58% or higher (TS% shows is a measure scoring efficiency, adding in the value of three-point shots and free throws). Outside of Gilbert Arenas (in 2004-05), the list is loaded with current and future Hall of Fame players.
