Frightening Stat proves how difficult life will be for Devin Booker next season

The Phoenix Suns have completed a huge selection, changes out of season this season, and they may not be ready yet. It doesn’t matter how she ultimately line-up on the opening night of 2025-26 One thing is certain, Devin Booker becomes the center of the schedule. That two-year extension of $ 145 million to ensure that he will remain the franchise corner for some time.

How he will be used is currently under discussion – as although Jalen Green might be tried as a Point Guard – it feels inevitable that at a certain moment the responsibility will fall to Booker again during the campaign. A position with which he has some experience, although the jury is still looking or that the best use of his fantastic attacking skills (it is not …).

Booker is going to see even more double teams than last season.

In anticipation of the new season, the good people on @allCity_NBA on Twitter took a look at the players who were confronted with the most double teams last season with touches in the front Court. You will probably not be surprised to see booker on the list on the list, but what makes much more worries is the fact that he Only Suns player who appears.

Why that is a huge issue is because Booker last season had none other than Kevin Durant as his teammate, and he got fewer double teams than Julius Randle or Domantas Sabonis in the Front Court. The conviction was that the suns would lead to success with two attacking superstars, although we now know that that did not happen.

But now that Durant and Bradley Beal have disappeared, opponents will be able to do even more on Booker. The second best attacking player on the Roster is green, although it can be seen at the age of 23 how consistent he can be with the ball in hand. Some nights he looks like a superstar in the making, others are shades d’Angelo Russell’s shot selection about him.

This is made even worse by the fact that Booker could again make the point run while the season unfolds. If that is the case and he sees so many double teams, it will be him to choose the right pass and to hope for each property and hope for the best. He will also not be able to give it to Green every time, and what point it will be to see how people like Koby Brea and Khaman Maluach do.

It is to know that Booker was so doubled when he was not always the center of attention is a concern, because he is now undoubtedly the star of the show. Fortunately, he is selfless and he is also an underrated passer -by, but that is not the point. The game plan was to delay booker when he had one of the best scorers of all time last season, imagine what that means you will continue.
