Devin Booker Signs Extension With The Suns for $158M
Guard Devin Brooker has just signed a five-year, $158 million USD contract extension with the Phoenix Suns. Brooker, 21, said he is "humbled" and "honoured" to be continuing with the Suns.
In 2017, Booker became the first player in franchise history to score 70 points and was the youngest player in NBA history to score 60 or more points in a game. Booker averaged 24.9 points per game in his third NBA season.
I am humbled & honored to commit to the Suns organization long term. I loved calling Phoenix home the last 3 seasons as this team & community are special to me. Thank you to the Suns for drafting me and believing in me. I look forward to the future & pursuing a title as a Sun. pic.twitter.com/AHRaraPww6
