Devin Booker and the Phoenix Suns are the hottest team in the NBA right now.
The Suns are an impressive 6-0 down in Orlando, and Booker is playing like a top-five player in the NBA.
After the Suns' latest victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Booker opened up about the team's surprising 6-0 start in Disney World.
“It's been fun,” Devin Booker said after tying his own Suns record for most 35-point games in a single season, notching his 15th, via Dave McMenamin of ESPN.
“We've been playing really good basketball. We've been having fun on and off the court with each other. We're becoming closer. We're learning each other. And we're communicating with each other.”
Booker also noted that the Suns are taking it “one game at a time” in Orlando. The team still has work to do to qualify for the play-in series in the West, which is why Booker claims the Suns have to maintain their level of play and finish out strong in Orlando.
With two seeding games remaining, the Suns still trail the Portland Trail Blazers by half a game for the No. 9 spot in the Western Conference. Phoenix is back in action on Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers and will finish the seeding games on Thursday versus the Dallas Mavericks.
The winner of the No. 8 seed in the West will face the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the playoffs. Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies are in eighth place as of now, but both the Suns and Blazers are coming for them at full speed.
