Devin Booker dishes out season-high 10 assists in Suns' loss on Thursday
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker scored 18 points on 7-of-16 field goals (2-of-5 3-pointers) and 2-of-4 free throws with 2 rebounds, 10 assists, and 5 turnovers in 30.3 minutes of Thursday's 142-116 loss to the Houston Rockets.
What It Means:
The assists are a new season-high for Booker, who has been running the point more and more for the Suns in recent games. Over the past five, he's averaging 6.0 assists with 25.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.4 3-pointers, and 0.6 steals on 46.9 percent from the field and 38.5 percent from deep. Phoenix faces the Los Angeles Lakers to close out a back-to-back set on Friday night.
Booker finished with 30.4 FanDuel points on Thursday night, and at a cost of $7,600, we project him to score 35.2 more tonight versus the Lakers.
