Devin Booker on Rockets' radar?
The Rockets position themselves to be aggressive in future trade scenarios with the Suns should that franchise need to disassemble. For now, the Suns plan to keep trying to win with Durant and Devin Booker, but the Rockets acquiring those Suns picks give them an inside track on a possible deal should a Suns star — particularly Booker, who’s 27 years old and on the Rockets’ timeline — become available. Durant could become a possibility, too.

We went 3 whole years without having to fend off any moronic takes about Devin Booker wanting to leave the Suns.
I hope you all enjoyed that time, because we are so back – 11:41 PM

Would anyone be that surprised if Kevin Durant suddenly asked for a trade out of Phoenix? Of course not. Just look at his track record and where the Suns are headed. Phoenix could recoup picks and build a more well-rounded team around Booker (and Beal because they have to). – 11:11 PM

Book it—you’re going to have a ton of Oilers fans in the Panthers arena tonight. Panthers better hope they create some distance between themselves and Edmonton or the crowd will be all in on McDavid and Co. 🇨🇦 – 6:40 PM

I re-graded last 10 or so Phoenix Suns #NBADraft classes based on how they turned out.
Some of the names and grades at the time?
Devin Booker steal of 2015 draft.
Deandre Ayton over Luka Doncic.
Fans leaving draft party when Cam Johnson came via trade.

More on this storyline
As we talk about Bronny James’s candidacy, it’s worth pointing out that the success of second-generation players like Brunson isn’t the exception; it’s the rule. Jalen Brunson (33rd in 2018; son of Rick), Domantas Sabonis (11th in 2016; son of Arvydas) and Stephen Curry (7th in 2009; son of Dell) exceeded expectations — not to mention perennial All-Stars like Kobe Bryant (13th in 1996; son of Joe “Jellybean” Bryant), Klay Thompson (11th in 2011; son of Mychal) and Devin Booker (13th in 2015; son of Melvin) weren’t even top-10 picks. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 22, 2024
Monk—who really put himself on the map, fashion-wise, this season—was making his first-ever appearance in the bracket. On his way to becoming Most Stylish, he beat out fellow upstart Jalen Williams in the first round. Then, he had to go through two veterans of both the NBA and its fashion scene: Russell Westbrook and LeBron James. That set him up for the final showdown against SGA, who went through PJ Tucker, Jayson Tatum, and Devin Booker to get there. -via GQ.com / June 21, 2024
