Devin Booker on a record-setting stretch for the Suns
March 10, 2023
According to Trevor Booth of SB Nation on Wednesday, Devin Booker of Grand Rapids, Michigan made Phoenix Suns history by becoming the first player in the history of the franchise to record a minimum of 35 points in four straight games. He accomplished the feat when he scored 44 points in a 132-101 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Booker made 17 of 23 field goals, six of 10 three-point shots and four of five three throws. He added four assists and three rebounds in 27 minutes and 31 seconds of action.
Booker reached the 35 point plateau in four Suns wins. He scored 37 points in a 105-91 Phoenix win over the Charlotte Hornets on March 1. Booker then had 35 points in a 125-104 Phoenix win over the Chicago Bulls on March 3, and then 36 points in a 130-126 Phoenix win over the Dallas Mavericks on March 5.
It should be noted that Booker led the Suns in scoring in the wins over the Thunder, Hornets and Bulls, but not the Mavericks. It was the newly-acquired Kevin Durant who led Phoenix in scoring in the win over Dallas as he had 37 points. Durant did not play against the Thunder because of an ankle injury according to nba.com.
