Over the last two seasons, the Suns have been one of the premier teams in the NBA.

They made the NBA Finals in 2021 and had the best record in the league during the 2022 season (64-18). 

Right now, the Suns are 27-25 in 52 games, which has them tied with the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks for the fifth seed in the Western Conference.

They are in the middle of a two-game winning streak and are 6-4 in their last ten games.

Booker was the 13th overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft and is in his eighth season (all with the Suns).
