Phoenix Suns: Setting goals for every rotation player
By Jono Perilli
Devin Booker
Goal: Continue Bubble Booker/Become an official All-Star
We’re going to set two goals for Devin Booker, because why not? Besides, he’s their best player and already has expectations as it is.
His first goal is to continue Bubble Booker, which was an anomaly sent from the basketball gods. It’s safe to say that Bubble Booker is reminiscent of Hoodie Melo or Untucked Kyrie, that’s how dominant he was for the Suns in Orlando. The chances of Booker continuing his efforts from the bubble is more than there. In fact, he has a great chance of improving to involve his teammates more. Booker will already have tons of eyes on him next season, so if he can show that he can keep up from his bubble persona, we’ll be on the perfect train.
The second goal is something that he kind of already achieved this year, but it’s been tweaked slightly. Booker was an All-Star snub last season and was only able to make it as a replacement after Damian Lillard’s unfortunate injury. This was Booker’s first time as an All-Star, so it was ground-breaking. But this year, we want to see Devin Booker as an actual All-Star, and not a replacement wild card for a guard. It’s challenging, but it’s possible for Booker, who should be getting in the groove of being a consistent All-Star at this point in his career.
