Hype or Bust: Week 7 edition

Devin Booker (Phoenix Suns):

The young man is destined to become a franchise star

Devin Booker was one of the bright lights of Phoenix Suns last season and was expected to continue his improvement into this season. After Week 7, it is clear that he is still the go-to man for the Suns. He has been doing whatever is needed from him, either getting the rebounds or being the playmaker or just simply outscoring the other team, he is Mr. Reliable for the Suns.

Although he has been averaging 24 points per game this season, his week 7 was a stellar one, with him averaging 31 points per game along with 6 rebounds and 3 assists a game at 50+% shooting from the field. Recently back from an ankle injury which forced him to sit out of the Timberwolves game, he has shown us why he is still a clutch player for the Suns, with the play showing us his talent:

Although Booker is absolutely on fire, his team the Suns have been flirting with the bottom places, which was quite expected from them. Still, Booker seems like the only one capable of keeping them competitive in most games and the hype surrounding his new season was justified.

HYPE: 9.5/10
