The Phoenix Suns’ season has not gone as expected, and Devin Booker believes their issues extend beyond just talent.
“Talent only gets you so far,” Booker told FOX Sports. “I’ve been on teams with less talent that found ways to get more wins. It’s just the little things… the details of the game.”
Phoenix entered the year with high expectations behind their Big Three of Booker, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal, but consistency has been a challenge. Despite their star power, the Suns sit at 10th in the Western Conference with a 33-37 record, barely clinging to a play-in spot.
Booker, 28, has been the team’s most reliable performer, averaging 25.9 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 7.0 assists per game. Durant leads the team in scoring at 26.4 points per game, while Beal is contributing 17.3 points per contest.
Phoenix trails the sixth-seeded Golden State Warriors by eight games, making a direct playoff berth unlikely. With just 12 games left in the regular season, time is running out for the Suns to find consistency before the postseason.
