Devin Booker is probably the best thing to happen to Phoenix since Steve Nash. Over his 7-year career, Booker has put up 23.5 points, 4.7 assists, and 3.9 rebounds per game. Earlier in his career, Booker was heavily criticized for his lack of effort on defense. Slowly but surely he has made strides and has improved on that aspect of his game.
Booker has been a part of 2 all-star games and just this past season he even made it to the All-NBA 1st team. When you’re racking up accolades like Booker while being the most important piece on a championship-contending roster, you are bound to get paid.
