Although Devin Booker is often excluded from the MVP conversations, the Suns star is making his case on the court and his peers are recognizing it.

His most recent performance was a 49-point and 10-assists double-double against the Nuggets which helped Phoenix seal number one seed in the Western Conference.

Following this performance Nets star Kyrie Irving expressed his support to Booker by tweeting that he is the MVP.

This season Booker is averaging 26.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5 assists in 34.4 minutes per game for the Suns while Phoenix has the best record in the entire league.
