The fourth-year guard is enjoying his finest season to date. He has been averaging 26.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 6.7 assists in 61 games . His scoring average currently places him ninth overall in the league.

The Suns have a jewel of a player in Booker, who is a sure bet to take part in many All-Star seasons in the future. He certainly has what it takes to join the likes of Kevin Johnson, Steve Nash, Tom Chambers, Charles Barkley, Jeff Hornacek, Shawn Marion, Connie Hawkins and Paul Westphal as the best players in franchise history.

Phoenix has struggled all season long. The Suns have won just 17 of their 74 games, checking out at the bottom of the Western Conference standings. Booker remains the lone bright spot on a team which should improve as the years go by.
