Now, for the purposes of this unique lineup, Devin Booker will be forgoing his usual “shooting guard” position in favor of a more free “scoring wing” role. While many think of Devin Booker as a spot up shooter – and he is – ultimately, Booker is much more than that.

In addition to his fantastic jumper, Book has a variety of polished finishes around the basket which make him even more difficult to stop than your run-of-the-mill three-point shooter. Devin is capable of sinking left and right-handed runners, ten-foot floaters, and off-footed layups just as easily as he is an open three-pointer.

In the end, however, all of these details are irrelevant. Simply put, no Suns’ starting five is complete without Devin Booker.
