Booker’s Return From Hip Strain
Booker has missed the Suns’ last four games due to a right hip strain. He previously missed seven games in late January and early February due to a sprained ankle.
Suns head coach Jordan Ott told reporters that Booker was in a good spot after playing 5-on-5 basketball with some of Phoenix’s rotation players on Sunday.
The five-time All-Star has been the Suns’ leading scorer this season, averaging 24.7 points, 6.1 assists and 3.9 rebounds per game.
