Devin Booker Dominates The Clippers In Game 3
Devin Booker went for 38 points in Game 2 and then decided he was going to drop a 40-ball in Game 3. The 26-year-old finished a red-hot Game 3 with 45 points on 18-for-29 shooting while adding six rebounds, three assists, three steals, and two blocks. He also went 3-for-7 from deep and 6-for-7 from the free throw line. The Clippers seem to be in a lot of trouble if Booker is going this crazy in back-to-back games. On one hand, Kawhi Leonard missed this contest, but on the other hand, Booker is going to score regardless of who's playing.

Suns Not Looking To Trade Devin Booker This Offseason
Devin Booker has been with the team since they made him the 13th overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. Despite the rough season with three max-contract players, Booker seems to be cemented in the team's plans moving forward. Even in a down year, the 28-year-old is averaging 25.9 points, 6.8 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 1.0 steals, and 2.7 threes per game. Owner Matt Ishbia made it clear that Booker is not on the trade block, even though the Suns are expected to make a major shakeup this offseason. Co-stars Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal have already had their names thrown into the rumor mill, and it seems like their moves away from Phoenix are all but inevitable. Ishbia is not a fan of rebuilds, so there could be a brand new supporting cast around Booker with other veterans if he gets his wish.

Devin Booker Will Play On Thursday
Devin Booker (back) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The superstar guard missed the final game before the All-Star break due to a back issue. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried about it as the Suns likely rested him knowing it was the last game before the break. Booker appears to be fine now and ready to resume his role in the starting five. Booker has been excellent this season and is a must-start in all fantasy formats.

Devin Booker Ruled Out For Wednesday
Devin Booker (back) will come out of the lineup on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. He hurt his back in Tuesday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies as Phoenix kicked off a back-to-back. With Bradley Beal (toe) also out, Kevin Durant will be the last man standing among the Suns' Big Three. He netted a game-high 34 points in Tuesday's loss against Memphis to become the eighth player in NBA history with 30,000 career points. Given Phoenix's injury situation, Tyus Jones and Ryan Dunn should take on additional offensive duties in Wednesday's game.

Devin Booker Will Play Tuesday
Devin Booker (groin) was listed as questionable for the team's Tuesday night home game against Memphis, but he was upgraded to available 30 minutes before tip-off. Booker has missed the last five games with a groin injury but will start for Phoenix in the team's final game of 2024. In his 26 games this season, Booker has averaged 25.1 points, 6.4 assists, and 3.7 rebounds per game. He could only be available for limited minutes, but his return means he can be started in all fantasy formats. While Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal get a slight downgrade for DFS contests, Booker's return is great news for the Suns.
