Is Devin Booker playing tonight against Atlanta Hawks? Latest on Phoenix Suns All-Star's status (March 21)

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker is not on the team's injury report for the coming contest on Thursday against the Atlanta Hawks. He will play on the second set of their back-to-back.

The Suns rebounded in their latest outing, securing a 115-102 victory over the Sixers on their home court. Meanwhile, Frank Vogel's squad has been inconsistent, losing three of their last six games. Thus they are struggling to reclaim a spot in the automatic playoff positions, sitting just half a game away from the top six.

The win against the Sixers marked their 40th victory of the season and welcomed Isaiah Thomas back to the NBA fold. The former Celtic guard, known for his exceptional scoring prowess, is poised to bolster an impressive offense.

What happened to Devin Booker?

The All-Star guard sustained an ankle injury during the closing moments of the Suns' defeat against the Houston Rockets. Devin Booker rolled his ankle after colliding with teammate Royce O'Neale while backpedaling on defense.

Following the collision, Book remained on the court shortly, visibly in discomfort as he grasped his ankle. He then made his way to the locker room with a noticeable limp.

Despite initial concerns, postgame X-rays revealed no fractures, alleviating worries about the severity of Booker's injury.
