Devin Booker leaves Suns' loss early after hard fall
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker scored 29 points (9-of-25 field goals, 9-of-10 free throws) with 6 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 3-pointers, and 4 turnovers in 35.8 minutes of a 121-105 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday.
What It Means:
Booker exited with 3:54 remaining after taking a hard fall and landing on his right hip. It didn't appear to be a major issue, but it's worth noting that Booker didn't return to the game. The Suns don't play again until Saturday, so he will have some time to recover. Keep an eye out for any updates on his status over the next few days.
Booker scored 45.7 FanDuel points on Tuesday. numberFire's models project him for 22.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.1 steals, and 2.5 triples per game over the rest of the season.
