Devin Booker GOES OFF for 52 points in dominant Suns win over Pelicans
Look I know we get into hyperbole sometimes and this very well maybe maybe that but again he proves why he’s the best son of all the greatest son of all Time there were a lot of guys in tonight’s game who contributed to this great game from the Suns but obviously I think the one that we all know deserves the big bright shiny star is of course Devin Booker yeah not Z look at this guy Zion here’s here’s a number that we not
Gonna see up there Devin Ethan Booker big bright shiny star finished with 52 points five assists he was six of 11 from Deep shot 60% from the field an incredible night for Devon Booker he was 18 of 13 from the field tonight 18 18 13 mathematically impossible I’m sorry got
150% I mean it felt like it right yeah sure did 18 of 30 60% and of all those numbers that we just said there’s one that sticks out to me that is even better than anything we mentioned one turnover MH one turnover okay that’s because the ball hit his
Hands and he put it through the rim you can’t turn it over with the net snapping like that right you know you know it’s it’s crazy to think about but you one turnover um that’s one of those games where you would a lot of times when you’re trying to find that heater and
You you saw a moment in that game where his teammates wanted him to go and he unfortunately I think that last three that got called off that was it that was the one that kind of threw him off because then I think he took three more shots after that and they didn’t look
Good and it was like all right bro you we had we gave you a chance but what I meant to say is when you’re in that moment and your teammates are encouraging you to cook that’s where some turnovers happen because you you start to do things out
Of character and he never lost the flow and the balance and the pop that he had in this basketball game and so yeah man I mean never cease it amaz me but this this guy’s incredible and I’m glad he’s on this basketball team and uh Brad Bal
13 it looks it doesn’t look great but I love I love the fact that he also didn’t get greedy at times he passed up a lot of shots to make the right play and he keeps defensive he keeps the defense honest right because there’s no way in
The world when book is cooking and Katie’s almost got 30 um you know you got Brad Bill there at any minute saying I can go off too man y’all get funny y’all get funny and start going sending too much to Devin and Kevin and I’ll
Cook the hell out of y’all so wow yeah and together they didn’t even really need him tonight to be honest like that was the beauty of it but they still like Bradley Bal five assist Grayson 6 they finished with 32 assists as a team despite a guy going for 50 plus nor when
You see that sort of thing it’s like all right clear out I’m going to go to work it’s ISO Ball but they move the ball really well and that and that’s why it’s good to see the big three continue to build that familiarity that starting lineup continue to build the chemistry
Together because they’re learning how to move the ball and every defense is different every challenge opponent is different yeah but they’re getting looks at all these different defenses and they’re starting to be able to just overcome them and book going for 25 in the first quarter yeah in the in the
First quarter was like you were at one of those five-star restaurants where it’s got that open concept where you can see the Chef cooking they were watching the chef do his work it was a five-star Michin type of performance and he took care of business in that first yeah
There was a lot of um really cool stats and moments in this game so you guys mentioned that 25 points in the first quarter that’s the fifth time in Devon’s career that he scored 25 or more in a single quarter uh this is also the 12th time in Devon Booker’s career that he
Scored at least 30 points in a half it’s his sixth 50-point game of his career in the regular season and uh 50-point games in Sun’s regular season history Deon has six of them and every other player combined has six of them in Sun’s history and then of course this stat from
Nba.com stats on uh X said after notching his fifth career 25-point quarter tonight Devin Booker only Trails Steph Curry with eight in such quarters in NBA history now in NBA history since 1997 98 when they started uh tracking quarter splits so Steph Curry has eight Devon Booker has five Kobe and Dame have
Four and then Klay Thompson and embiid have three so a lot of cool little nuggets out of this game for Devin Booker tonight as well I think if he had had not to play what if if he had like six more points he would have own four
Of the top five scoring performances in Sun’s history which is just Insanity I mean he’s he’s got to have five of the top 10 right now off the off the top of my head so I mean it’s it’s unbelievable what this I guess I can’t call him a kid
Anymore I get this this man is doing out there uh and I think it’s look I know we get into hyperbole sometimes and this very well maybe maybe that but again he proves why he’s the best son of all the greatest son of all time oh yeah you
Know at least from a scoring perspective

Booker the Cooker mode was on. Build on this momentum Suns!!
I told my husband in the 1st quarter that Booker was going to get 50. He was on fire but I was very impressed with their team defense on Zion. They can be real contenders if they continue be physical on defense. Nurkic is a bit of a liability in the post sometimes.
