PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns saw two of their stars land in the top ten of NBA jersey sales for the first half of the 2023-24 season, according to the league. 

Devin Booker (No. 7) and Kevin Durant (No. 8) ranked above notable names such as Damian Lillard, Ja Morant, Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic when it comes to jerseys sold from NBAStore.com.

Full list below in the NBA's tweet:

The Suns overcame a rocky start to the season and are currently 27-20, good enough for the No. 6 seed in the West. 

Booker and Durant are both having great seasons from both a team and individual perspective. Booker's 28.4 ppg is good enough for No. 5 in the NBA while Durant's 28.3 is right behind him at No. 6. 

Both are shooting over 50% from the field though Durant's three-point percentage of 45.2 is fourth in the entire league. 

Last week, Durant was announced as an NBA All-Star Game starter for the West, his 14th time appearing in the game. 

"Thanks to the fans, media and most importantly my peers for voting me into my 14th all star game. Can’t wait to lock in and hoop with some of the greatest ever in Indy.." he wrote on Twitter/X.

Booker has the opportunity to make the game - which would be his fourth appearance - as a reserve later this week. 

"Just a spectacular player," Suns coach Frank Vogel said of Booker.

"I think he should have been voted to be an All-Star starter, personally. I think the whole world can see that. He'll be in that game when coaches vote." 

NBA assistant coaches will vote on reserves this Thursday.
