During the first half of the Phoenix Suns, San Antonio Spurs game, fans saw Devin Booker leave the game and not return due to hip soreness.

It’s unclear the severity of the injury, but head coach Jordan Ott said he had to protect Booker from himself. The 29-year-old tried reentering the game, however, he wasn’t moving well at all.

“[He] tried to go back out there,” Ott said. “[Had to] save him from himself. [He] wasn’t moving great when he came back in.”

Recently, Booker was out seven games with a sprained right ankle. In 44 games this season, he has been averaging 24.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 6.1 assists.

According to Marc Stein, the Phoenix Suns are expected to offer Devin Booker a massive extension to entice him to stay through their latest rebuilding challenge.

Within the near future, Phoenix will offer Booker a two-year, $150 million contract. This will keep the franchise superstar under contract through the 2029-30 season.

The 28-year-old had a say in who his next head coach would be for the following season and beyond. This will be his eighth head coach in eleven seasons.

Booker continues to work off his existing extension he signed back in 2022 worth $200 million over four seasons. Once he signs this upcoming extension, he will be making $321 million over the next five years.

According to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, the Phoenix Suns are expected to offer Devin Booker a two-year, $149.8 million deal. This is to convince him to stay in the midst of a potential rebuild.

During the 2022 season, Booker signed a supermax extension worth four years, $220 million. If he were to sign the deal, this would take the veteran guard through his prime years of his career.

It has been made clear the Suns highly value Booker and want him to be the focal point of their reset. This comes after reports from Shams Charania, and others, surrounding Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal no longer being apart of their future.

Despite the horrific season, led by terminated head coach Mike Budenholzer, Booker averaged 25.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 7.1 assists.
