Highlights: Watch Devin Booker Continue Hot Streak with 48 Points vs. Grizzlies
You know Devin Booker has been playing out of his mind lately when 48 points feels disappointing.
The only reason it feels disappointing is because, in his previous two games, the Phoenix Suns guard became the youngest player in NBA history with back-to-back 50-point games at 22 years old.
In the Suns' 120-115 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night, Booker made 19-of-29 shots from the field (including three three-pointers) on his way to 48 points and 11 assists.
The 2015 No. 13 overall pick hit the 48 mark with 1:27 left in the fourth quarter but fell just short of his third consecutive 50-burger.
Booker was all over the floor against the Grizzlies with catch-and-shoot threes, drives to the rim and pull-up jumpers.
Even with Booker's performances, the 17-60 Suns have lost six games in a row.
Booker has scored at least 20 points in every game throughout March and is averaging 26.9 points, 6.8 assists and 4.2 rebounds on the season.
Franchise records broken by him this season include most games with 35-plus points, five-plus rebound and five-plus assists along with becoming the first Sun to score at least 40 in three straight games.
