Is Devin Booker the Suns' new point guard?

Denver Nuggets vs. Phoenix Suns - Game Four

The Suns have an exciting squad this season. With a new "Big 3," Phoenix has a chance to win the NBA championship this season. However, both Booker and Bradley Beal play the shooting guard position, making it a difficult transition for either player to move to the point guard.

Although there hasn't been an official statement from the coaching staff on Devin Booker playing the point guard position, he's likely to get to play the position. Additionally, new head coach Frank Vogel mentioned that his offense will feature a "multiple ball-handler attack" this season.

"The pace that we want to play with, I think most possessions are going to have different ball-handlers each time down," Vogel said. "It’s going to be a multiple ball-handler attack, but I’m comfortable with those guys."

With this, it could be a hint of what's to come from the Suns. The point guard position is empty after the front office traded away Chris Paul. They also got rid of Cameron Payne, who many expected to take on the starting point guard role.

In the past, Booker has had chances to facilitate for the team. He's done a decent job ensuring the team executes their offense properly. This season, fans might see him play the lead guard role more.

The three-time All-Star played tremendously well last season. He averaged 27.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists for the Suns.
