Phoenix Suns: Ranking Devin Booker’s best games this season
By Jono Perilli
5: 36 PTS, 8 AST, 5 REBS vs Milwaukee Bucks (March 8th)
Deciding for the fifth spot is quite tough, considering Booker has had some fantastic showings this season. But it’s his efficient showing against the Milwaukee Bucks which was arguably one of his most impressive.
While he was able to put forth better scoring performances this season, it was his fantastic 76 percent field-goal percentage (13-of-17) that has outlined this performance as fantastic. From his awesome shooting percentage, Booker was able to notch up four threes from six attempts. While he did have six turnovers and four personal fouls, it’s his consistency on both ends that was able to help put away the Bucks. Booker also scored 20 of his 36 points in the first quarter.

Despite his star-studded and fantastic showing, it was his teammate Ricky Rubio, who snatched the spotlight from Booker. Rubio was able to put up a bold 25-point triple-double, along with three steals. Both Rubio and Booker were able to put away the Bucks even though they were without their superstar, Giannis Antetokounmpo.
This would end up being the second-last game for the Phoenix Suns, so a dominant win against the Bucks will mean they will be going into the hiatus with some momentum. This performance by Booker is one of his most efficient over his career, cementing it as the fifth spot on the list.
